For once I agree with sportsfan - Nieves is far from terrible.
He's an ideal back-up catcher. I don't get the hate.

i never said i thought he was terrible, i'm just saying what dibs said about his defensive ability compared to flores.

Shrug.  You guys are basing way too much of your opinion about our catchers on game-calling.  Unless you're mind-readers you have no idea who is calling what with this club.

dibbs gets paid the big bucks for a reason.  he made a valid point.  look how many stolen bases have been on nieves.  it's not always on the catcher, but he was saying we miss flores bat and his ability behind the plate.

i dogged him the first couple weeks when he was leaving runners in scoring position sure.  but i gave him credit when he was playing well.  stop getting defensive dude.

Flores' bat is definitely missed, but I question just how much difference his defensive ability over Nieves' really makes.  I'm not saying Flores isn't better - he is - but I don't think it's THAT much difference.  Stolen bases is probably the most valid point you could make, and something I can't explain.  Nieves was never this bad throwing out base stealers before.
