If you were talking purely catching, many would give that to Pudge...I'm quite sure the opposing baserunners would. TxHoops 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bullets13 Posted January 20, 2017 Report Share Posted January 20, 2017 Pudge was my favorite player growing up. Glad to see him get this honor. LumRaiderFan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think his last year was 1983, I was 7 in 1983. Not knocking him at all, but Pudge is that best that I ever saw play.

You are correct I was talking overall. My favorite growing up was Thurman Munson but Bench was the best to me. LumRaiderFan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
