Flores is miles better than both Lo Duca and Estrada NOW. Both at the plate and behind the plate.  There is no doubt in my mind.  What do we have to lose anyways? We are the worst team in the Majors. 

Estrada's a better hitter than Flores at this point. Less power, but a better hitter. I do understand your wanting Flores here, though. With this team, we know we're not going to win a WS, so why aren't young players like Flores getting the opportunity to play NOW and get the experience? I get it, but I also see why we went and got better veteran offensive catchers. They know the division and they've had success in the past.

I'm not as worried about that, though. The guys that are supposed to be the big producers haven't stepped up yet. We wouldn't even be talking about Flores if the rest of them were doing their jobs.
