Everyone gets an opinion, bro. Citing a made up stat, subjective in nature anyway (just because it’s a number doesn’t mean it’s not subjective, any more than the 5s or whatever we write on paper for players’ skills) made up by a guy who has no idea what it is like to catch 130 games in 9 months, for the purpose of proving the worthiness of an opinion, is where I must point out the absurdity of the argument.

Everyone still gets an opinion. But that means everyone does. Tell me why Mauer is the seventh (!!!!) best catcher of ALL TIME. Don’t cite a subjective made up number...especially from a guy like THAT, and say ipso facto he’s the seventh best catcher in the history of Baseball.

The dude is a writer, supposedly, and the best he can do is a number...which he MADE UP.... for his argument? That’s why I mock him.
