That doesn't surprise me. Mauer is excellent in the field.

And Sal is one of my favorite players.


Didn't say I disliked it, just surprised.
There's a good chance I trade one later on, either will be better than what's on the board at C and several guys haven't picked one. Also possible I draft a 1B and use one as #2. Best alignment now is Mauer at 1B. Perez was BPA IMO

I was surprised earlier he was on the board.

Eh, I can nitpick too:suds: And it may or may not be my final alignment. I've got two great Catchers either way. I dont see any more(besides WC)


Not sure why I said I prefer they be lefty, I think most of us do but that really shouldn't be part of the discussion. Kent Hrbek is one of the best fielding first basemen I've ever seen and he threw right.

Best part of the Perez pick is what it left others who don't have a catcher to pick from.

Yeah, you can make the 1st to 3rd throw either way, it's just footwork. Most 1B are lefties that are to slow for the OF because there's nowhere else they can play

Now Correa burns a little, cuz I figured he'd be around.

Ben Zobrist may have his dream come true now.

(There's a follow up question to this that seems automatic.)

In 2-3 years, Correa will be right there with Trout and Harper in the argument for best player in the game. Book it
