Catcher Rankings and Projections

The catching position has always been a weakness in fantasy baseball and 2010 was a good example of that, when there was not a single catcher in the season's top 100 rankings. However, 2010 did see some new blood that brought a little more depth to this thin position. Buster Posey (pictured here) won the N.L. Rookie of the Year and before getting hurt, Carlos Santana also had a solid debut over in the American League. Both these young blue chip prospects showed that they were ready for the show in a big way. While the catching position is still not deep, it could be argued that it is deeper than it has been in a very long time. Matt Weiters, still only 24 years old, has been a bust so far but he has gotten better. For my rankings and projections, click here.
