LOL, so they signed up Salty and Nap on the same day for $9M+ to cover C and 1B?

Salty is a solid catcher and he seems to have somewhat figured out the plate.. Let's hope both continue

Salty sucks at catcher and hits HRs as a batter and not doing much of that this year

Put Ross behind the plate and be done with it

eh Ross is too old to be the 'starting' catcher. Having a catcher that doesn't suck is a luxury few teams have. Tough position to fill.
