Robinson Chirinos 2022

Wow.  What a breathe of fresh air this guy has been.

Praising a man by criticizing another is the poorest compliment possible, but when he broke down and blocked a breaking ball in the dirt, even without any baserunners the other day, I had to smile and think about his predecessor.  He's also been active with the pitchers and clearly communicative and engaged.  Likewise, a welcome difference.

I always liked him in Texas.  I realize he's 38 years old, but for what is hopefully his role- ~45 games behind the plate- he should help this team.

Or the fact that it's been four games.

 

He's been fine, all you could reasonably expect.  Not sure if he's going to hold up for 100 games.

I dont think he'll hold up for 100 either. Lets hope he plays half that.

Anyone know of a source for Catcher ERA? Would be curious to compare Chirinos vs Severino vs their respective teams. Impossible to quantify but no doubt the pitchers have been performing well with him. I know it's very, very early, but when was the last time we were #5 in MLB team pitching?
