View Full Version : Best catchers in baseball Jrnygrl 08-04-2005, 12:42 PM I just saw a Sports Century profile on Johnny Bench. I completely forgot about Johnny! What a catcher he was. So who do you think are the greatest catchers in baseball? Past or present. I will post my choices later. :wave: Brian 08-04-2005, 12:50 PM Thurman Munson would have probably had a really great career had he not died in the plane crash in 1979. Carlton Fisk and Mike Piazza are also among the best catchers in baseball. dlemond 08-04-2005, 12:56 PM Thurman Munson would have probably had a really great career had he not died in the plane crash in 1979.

Carlton Fisk and Mike Piazza are also among the best catchers in baseball. Your right Munson was the best! What a tragedy that was. My list. No particular order: Bench Munson Rick Cerone Roy Campinella Carlton Fisk Steve Yeager Gene Tenace Ed Ott Manny Sanguillen Javy Lopez Brian Downing Lance Parrish Gary Carter Darryl Porter |
