Sabean brings up a good point that Posey has so little catching experience compared to other players who had a lot more before getting to the big leagues. However, the Orioles had a hot catching prospect named Matt Wieters, who spent 1 season in A Ball, and 39 games between AA and AAA before getting called up to split time with Greg Zaun. It seems rare though to see a catcher in the majors with so little experience.

Sabean is just scared off Posey didn't hit well in the AFL - DJ 2009-12-14 22:01:13 (39 views)

I don't see the problem of platooning Posey while he improves his catching skills - glass half empty 2009-12-04 21:28:14 (80 views)

I think it would depend on who his platoon partner is - LG 2009-12-04 22:59:52 (96 views)

I think it matters to the extent of how he handles the pitching staff and mentor to Posey - glass half empty 2009-12-04 23:22:54 (91 views)

I don't understand Sabean's explanation of not offering Molina arbitration - Duck the Fodgers 2009-12-04 17:20:23 (106 views)

It's probably because they don't want to pay him the amount that he would get in arbitration - glass half empty 2009-12-04 17:24:34 (108 views)

With the names thrown out there... Nick Johnson, Beltre, Dye - Duck the Fodgers 2009-12-05 05:37:27 (91 views)

I agree with that. It made sense if they were going to go with Posey - microwave donut 2009-12-07 13:51:02 (43 views)
