Hottest Catchers and A Couple of Questions

Top 10 Hottest Catchers (As of July 1)
(P15 = Points in Last 15 days)

10) Jason LaRue FA
P15 = 38

Sadly, this is not a joke. Ugh.

9) Geovany Soto INOC
P15 = 39

Turning into a keeper prospect???

8) Gregg Zaun FA
P15 = 40

It always surprises me when I see his name as an active player. I swear he retired three years ago.

7) Dioner Navarro
P15 = 41

The hot Rays have a semi-hot catcher. ESPN has an unnatural obsession for the Rays.

6) Ramon Hernandez FA
P15 = 42

The Baltimore catcher has two home runs and five runs batted in over his last five games.

5) Ivan Rodriguez
P15 = 42

Pudge is rising from the ashes along with the rest of the Tigers.

4) Jason Kendall FA
P15 = 44

Wasn’t Kendall DFA’d by the Athletics last year? Now he’s batting .273 in regular action with the Brewers – proving once and for all that the National League sucks.

3) Kurt Suzuki FA
P15 = 53

The firing of the entire Seattle organization (overstatement) has lit a fire in Suzuki – who desperately needed SOMETHING to be lit.

2) Russell Martin
P15 = 55

At the time I am writing this, Russell Martin has 22 point game going, which would bump him to number one.

1) Joe Mauer
P15 = 65

Mauer is part of a surging Twins team making Royals fans wonder, “Why can’t we win in a small market???”

What are your thoughts on having a Utility player position next year?

What are your thoughts on having the consolation bracket at the end of the season determining the draft order? (Winner gets first pick, second place gets second pick, etc.)
