If he catches two out of every three games, that puts him at 109 games started at catcher. Only 7 other catchers in baseball started more games at catcher than that. This isn’t a Yadi situation. Catchers are splitting time more and more. Pages is going to get his starts and that’s just the way the game is played today. And while I think Herrera is better defensively than he gets credit for, he’s not the catcher that you have to have behind the plate every game.

But, yes, he should absolutely be DHing today. The guy just hits, and not just for a catcher.

Maybe that is the sound we are hearing here. Pages thunder. I am looking at radar. It is going to get nasty and soon.

I'd like to amend this statement. It was a great idea to start Burleson and Pages. That's what I meant to say all along.
