Glad to see you ease up a little on the kid.
That's the one position that touches the ball more than anyone and is expected to be perfect every time. It's impossible. Sure, many times it is the catcher's fault, but may times it's not. And no one cares. "Just catch the damn ball" is all you hear. It's the toughest position out there and so few can actually play it well. Very few.
Slaughter's a very good catcher, glad to have him.</p>
