That is extremely marginal over the course of a season. Long story short, don't worry about a catcher's fielding too much. Worry about their arm. | ||

However, according to the manual fielding and range are not that important for catchers. So most of us just look for a guy with a strong arm and low defensive ratings. | ||

Jason2327 Joined: 09/02/2014 Posts: 717 Abilene Patriots IV.3 | [ID #92392] I am training this guy to be my catcher of the future specifically because his low defense will boost all his hitting numbers. His arm is decent but his offense will compensate nicely | ||
