S.F. Giants HoF-catchers

[Honus Wagner Rules]

Let's vote for the top three at each position. Vote #1 and #2 and #3.

#1- 3 points
#2- 2 points
#3- 1 point

For a player to qualify they must have played for the Giants at least five years. I'll give a week for this poll.

The Giants haven't had many great catchers:

1. Tom Haller
2. Bob Brenly
3. Kirk Manwaring

[KCGHOST]

1. Dietz
2. Haller
3. Brenley

[Honus Wagner Rules]

1. Dietz
2. Haller
3. Brenley

What's up with Dietz's 1970 season? A 153 OPS+ from a catcher! Is he related to Norm Cash?

[west coast orange and black]

i'm with you on the catcher's spot, wags:

1: tom haller
2: bob brenly
3: kirk manwaring

The Giants franchise in its totality hasn't had much in the way of catchers, except Buck Ewing and Roger Bresnahan, who were from so long ago I don't have much faith in their dominance.

OK Wags, now that was funny!

I could possibly go with Haller. The best--Chief Meyers, Roger Bresnahan & Shanty Hogan--were all w/ New York. I like Manwaring & Dietz, but Haller is the only one who was steady over a period of time. If I have to give 3:

Haller
Dietz
Manwaring

Brian Johnson (just for his season for the Giants in 97)
Manwering
Brenly

And Benito had a couple of good seasons for the Giants too.
