You have last year's numbers for comparison? Or should we put Weiter's up there for this season?

Anyone have our catcher numbers from last season up to this point?

Wieters: .268/.321/.444, 9 HR, 37 RBI

Joseph: .174/.240/.203, 0 HR, 0 RBI

Wieters had a pretty good first half last year, and in case anyone forgot, was chosen as an All-Star reserve.     Joseph, of course, was abysmal.

Castillo had an unbelievable month, 1.113 OPS in 17 games.    

As I've pointed out in a few threads, despite Matt Wieters' mediocre numbers, the Nats are 69-28 when he starts, 12-24 when he doesn't.

Mere coincidence?

I would be real temped to bring back beef. He is a good hitter and Buck said that his defense has improved. Do you think Beef will test free agency? If so, then he for sure won't be back.

Beef holds the answer, since he is the one with a player option.

I don't think so, or at least, not primarily.    It may say more about Lobaton (.503 OPS, 4.73 CERA) than it does about Wieters (.653 OPS, 3.56 CERA).

We are in an enviable position at C.

I am still a bit troubled by Castillo's 5.45 CERA (compared to 4.24 for Joseph).     Just luck of the draw, or is his pitch-calling flawed?    Buck insists that the pitchers like throwing to both of them, but that's a big gap.
