    There's also Pierzynski and Molina, but they're both meh as well.

    I still think they are almost as good as Johjima, just not amazing.

    Oh, I agree. They're about as good as Johjima. But Johjima also falls into that "meh" category IMO. You don't feel bad taking them, because you need a catcher, but it's not like you feel very good taking them either. Just don't be one of the two people who don't have a catcher yet, and who doesn't get Pudge, Varitek, Pierzynski, or Molina. Because then you do feel bad.

    And if someone decides to take a backup catcher, that's one of those four, then even more people will be feeling the pain (although I'd guess that no one will take a backup catcher for quite a while)

    I'm not too stressed on catchers.

    Hey, if you don't mind getting stuck with a catcher with about 60 OPS+ (or a catcher with very few AB), I'm sure the others won't mind not being stuck with a scrub there. Although if they also don't worry about catcher, maybe you can get away with not worrying about it for now, and then still nabbing a decent one.

    I've still got my eye on one particular guy. He won't be my next pick, but I sure hope I get him.

    One particular catcher? Or just some guy in general? I mean, I've got my eye on about 20 guys, that I sure hope I get...

    One particular catcher. I'm not going to say who he is, since I've had him pinpointed since just about the beginning of the draft as the one guy I wanted (that is, if I didn't by some miracle get Russell Martin).

    From the beginning? Odd... I'm pretty sure there are none left that I would have wanted from just about the beginning - even counting catchers without much ABs

    Well, there were a few guys I had listed as better, however, I had a plan for each round, and this guy was the catcher I had listed first.

    Technically, you've got until sometime early tomorrow before your clock runs out, but seriously, you don't need to take that long.

    You've already had two days to think about who you want. If there's 3 guys who are that hard to choose between, you can probably take any of them and be making a good choice.

    yeah i know and i wouldn't take that much time. i just wanted to make sure that my time wasn't up in like a hour cuz my time on here is all wrong. ill get different times posted on different threads.

    well i had about 10-15 guys on my list... since i made my last pick and i just slowly worked them down to 3 that i really like.

    Nice Pick, I was watching him for a while. Wondering when he would be taken.
