I simply and politely pointed out that he isn’t a catcher. You’re the one who argued it instead of saying, “you’re right, he doesn’t catch anymore and hasn’t in years.”

That only became something because YOU made it something.
Whatever you say, AOF. If that makes you happy.

By the way, AOF, I started this thread and made the 1st post. What I said, after I showed his slash lines from his 2024 and 2025 outstanding offensive seasons was - "he's played 2B, 3B, 1B, C, and OF. How that got turned around, I have no idea. But it's really unimportant. Correctors have to correct. Bashers have to bash.
Yes, it’s quite a mystery “how that got turned around” . . .

Here is the ENTIRE initial exchange. How you interpreted it any other way is on you.

Torres doesn’t catch.
It’s not “what makes me happy”. It’s literally all I said :lol:

Of my gosh, NY!! What a horrible, egregious mistake I made! I'm so terribly sorry. In my opening post I said he had played catcher and in a later post is said he plays catcher. It was "he played" vs. "he plays". Thank you so much for fly specking and finding that awful, awful mistake. My most sincere apology to you. I'll simply have to find a way to make it up to you.
It will be hard, but I'll look for a way to right this brutal wrong.

And you could have avoided all of this with a simple, “you’re right, he’s not a catcher”

Instead, you chose the fight

Put it to bed, AOF. Don’t you too make a mountain out of a mole hill. It wastes other posters time reading the
garbage.

Yeah, I’m trying to. And the solution is pretty simple for you, but you’ve yet to just take an ounce of accountability for this going sideways.

I tried to tell you he isn’t a catcher. The simplest thing for you to do was own that you were wrong about it. You’re still struggling to do that, and blaming others for it.

You realize how easy it would’ve been to just say, “yeah, you’re right”, right?!?

Cranny: Just say it. It is very important to AOF to be told he's right in the words he's chosen for you.

Then he will know he saved you and the rest of us from what you weren't intending to say.

Here we are in another fine 12 round bout. Too early for popcorn and coke, so a bowl will have to do.

I caught one game.

Do you think it’s the toughest position on a player and toughest position ( third, short? ) to play.

Toughest physically with the constant squatting and foul tips, balls in the dirt...all the equipment...affected his hitting as well...shortstop and CF are your athletes and better players...catchers are grinders...

I’d agree. Interesting you say SS and CF. What about second base. A watered down version of short.
