I personally think Molina does a horrible job of framing pitches and loses a lot of strikes on the corners.

He also is lazy behind the plate and lets a lot of stuff go by him that shouldn’t.

Buster can only be an improvement.

He pitched for 14 years… he’s thrown to a few catchers. As much as I like Posey, I am willing to accept that he may not be polished defensively. Of course, I’m at work and can’t watch, so it’s all hypothetical to me.

Q: Did you ever make an offer for Vladimir Guerrero?
Sabean: In a word: No. If we had signed Guerrero or [Gary] Sheffield, we would have been without [Long list of replacement level vets]—obviously not being able to field a competitive team, especially from an experience standpoint, given our level of spending.

Bochy will shake his head, and after the rattling noise has stopped will say that Posey just isn’t ready.
