manager and broadcaster. Catchers can also make very good pitching coaches,

counts important? Do we need a minor league system? Lots of flashy things in
the game today, important to have them? Importance of volunteer coaches.

thinks is the perfect catcher and why. How catchers can improve behind the
plate in receiving. Relationships between catcher and umpire. Different
