I'm almost positive catcher ratings affect pitching performance. In one of my leagues Earl Williams (1971 NL ROY) was my catcher, his rating at catcher was 13 out of 100. My backup was Jarrod Saltalamacchia, whose rating was something like 45 out of 100, and when I started him (which was quite often) my staff's ERA was over a half a run lower than when I started Williams.
