    Who should be my backup catcher?

    In one corner, 30 year old Jason Castro, who has hit 85 home runs in the last two seasons in AAA. J. Castro

    In this corner, 25 year old Bobby Saber, yes the S3F guy. And no, his name is not really Bobby. It's Maurice. B. Saber





    My vote does not count, just let's me see the results easier.

    dude, you won over 100 games last season and you're worried about your backup catcher? I think you'll be fine regardless.

    I'd go with Saber. I like Castro's ability against RHP, but overall, Saber's a more solid hitter overall, has more range, and his arm is only 1 point less.

    It's because I won 108 games that I can make a poll and have people pick my back up. It's just how awesome works.

    Don't forget Saber's smart ass potential is 10-10-10-10-10

    Actually, I voted for Bob, but looking at it now I'd probably go with Castro.

    Bob hasn't even been out of A-ball. Promote him to AAA and teach him some more positions (like doggystyle HAHAHAHALOLOLOL) and see if he can hit there.

    Castro can hold down the fort as backup in the bigs (and, seeing as how Stiffler isn't great against righties but kills lefties, it might work well with the depth charts since Castro can't hit lefties), and if he sucks, you didn't waste Maurice's service time.
