I say let them all backstop at the same time. It should cut down on the wild pitches and passed balls.

Herrera should never touch a catchers glove again.
Pages can’t hit
Pozo is meh
None of them stand out defensively in any way shape or form
I’d call up Crooks asap and let him get some experience. Bernal at AAA. Let them battle it out in 2026.

And nowhere near as tough as you've tried to make it in this thread.Bully4you wrote: ↑21 Jul 2025 14:19 pmProblem lies in that we have to provide playing time.scoutyjones2 wrote: ↑21 Jul 2025 14:17 pm No catcher has proven they deserve to take the bulk of the innings in the bigs. I see no problem.
Also, we have to evaluate properly.
That mean MLB playing time too.
That's the issue man.
Come on.
It's tougher than you think.
Re: What the hell are the Cardinals going to do with all these catchers.
Agree 100%. Keep one of Pozo or Pages--or deal/DFA both and call up Bernal along with Crooks. Feet wet for 2026 season, move on from P & P ASAP. Why not?
