| The Catchers position is the most demanding in baseball. During the course of a game, the catcher is the busiest player on the field-crouching behind the plate, blocking balls, keeping track of the count on each batter, repositioning teammates defensively, and so on. The catcher needs to be one of the team leaders as the catcher is much like the quarterback of the team. The catcher needs to be one of the tougher (both physically and mentally) players on the team due to the demands on the position. The Catcher has to learn the most signs on the team. A very good catcher is always one of the hardest positions to find and/or develop and is said to be the quickest way to advanced play (College or Pro). | |
