00:00So you're touching on something that like one of the things that I thought was like just executive malpractice a
00:08year ago was when Sam and Adley were both hurt and they went with a black hole offensively a catcher
00:14for a long long stretch of games like there are options either in minor trades or just bring up Creed
00:22Willems or something to get to just put a bat that can somebody that can swing the bat at the
00:28catcher.
00:28I'm also torn on the Sam catching every day thing because he seemed to get beat up he's young the
00:34bat is more valuable than the glove at this point I want his bat in the lineup every day yeah
00:38but they need to have a second catcher that's not a black hole at the plate and Ken this gets
00:44back to a conversation we've had so many times over the years when it comes to Mike Elias in this
00:48front office you can't operate on the best case scenario you need to have a good plan B when it
00:56comes to the catching position
00:58because Sam is probably going to get beat up again throughout the season it's just the reality of playing catcher
01:06that they need to have a competent catching option besides Sam.
