If this is anything more than just acquiring a body for Iowa (which has only one catcher on the active roster now) then my feelings for the front office can be summed up with

lmfao. Len & Bob were joking on him, saying when the new relief pitcher (Blake something...) came in wearing 55 i think, they were like "well obviously the Cubs decided to not retire Koyie Hill's number..."

remember Dews wanted him to be AJ's backup instead of T-Flo. :troll:

Truthfully if it means not rushing a potential quality catcher it's a good move as long as the cash was a twenty. :)

We don't have any quality catching prospects left really. Castillo and Clevenger are the only guys that are remotely ready. The other guys in the system are mostly filler types like Blake Lalli.

This wouldn't have happened if all three of their MLB catchers hadn't gotten injured....so this is more just a desperation move to get a fill-in catcher until one (or two) of them comes back.

I'm sure you all probably already knew that, though.

We all knew that we were just one move away from a world championship. We lost our beast catcher Geovany Soto, but Koyie Hill is so good defensively that UZR couldn't even calculate it, which is why he has no UZR listed on fangraphs. I'm taking out a loan for World Series tickets today.

I don't think catchers technically have a UZR...they basically stay in one zone and so they are evaluated by DRS.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong.
