“Being a catcher isn't as big of an advantage as it used to be. Is he still worth it?”

 

“He's everything we once hoped Joe Mauer would be”

 

“On my all bust team. Read more at http://www.FantasySportsEmpires.com ”

 

“When you get Buster Posey, you have the best hitting catcher who will produce nearly every night at a very high level. Buster is the real deal, and is worth a high-draft pick to solidify the catcher position on your roster. Not only does he have 30 HR potential, he will hit over .325.”

“Bourn is taking his leadoff talents to Cleveland. An Indians team that is desperate for a leadoff hitter since Kenny Lofton. 50+ SBs is what you are drafting him for, there are much cheaper options in your draft who could duplicate. ”

“There's nothing not to like about Posey. He's head and shoulders ahead of every other Catcher. Plus, there's a good chance he'll get more playing time than any other catcher.”

 

“The clear-cut No. 1 catcher with first-base eligibility is just 25 and should only improve upon last season's MVP-worthy numbers. ”

 
 

“Feel he will have something extra to prove this season”
