Talk:Top ten catchers of all-time/@comment-102033-20060517153648

I say you guys drop the arguement about his pitch framing. It, like how good or bad relationships with the pitchers these guys caught for may have affected the game, is an impossible thing to quantify. Also, when Piazza was pounding homers out of the ballpark in his prime and was probably the best offensive catcher ever, of course pitchers aren&quot;t going to bring up something like his pitch framing (I&quot;m not saying he was good or bad at it). They knew in the scheme of things that complaining about something like that may hurt his offensive production which would hurt them much more.

I would also like to throw Thurman Munson&quot;s name out there in the discussion. I think if his career hadn&quot;t tragically ended so early he may have made this list.
