That doesn't make sense. If he's legit, then you want to keep him and let him hit behind Davis.

Wright, Davis, D'arnaud could be a very good 3-4-5.

Id call him the first Travis D'Arnaud.

i will settle for next joe ferguson.

Mackey was one of my favorite players.

Mine too.

I know its hard to believe but he did have a good throw to second. He did throw out Vince Coleman who always gave Met catches fits.

The only thing I remember about Mackey Sasser was he used to pound the ball in the catcher's mitt 3-4 times before throwing it back to the pitcher. . .after every pitch.

That started happening after he got into a collision with a Braves player.

I remember the chants MACKEY MACKEY MACKEY

Before the yips Mackey was cool.

I would settle for a player somewhere in between.

Mackey Sasser was a halfway decent hitter. He just had this psychological thing about throwing the ball back to the pitcher.

From what I've read about D'Arnaud, scouts compare him more toward a Gary Carter type catcher. I'll take that in a heartbeat.

Heck, Id even settle if he were the next John Stearns.

Maybe more like a carlos Ruiz,borderline Russel Martin.I don't think he'll be as good as Piazza nor as average as Sasser.And hopefully there's no studder in his throw back to the pitcher.
