September 2, 201014 yr I've never heard of an non pitcher getting Tommy John. Probably have been plenty of them, but this is the first one I've heard of. Also, Mountains Of Teal is right, catcher just moved very high up the list in offseason priorities.
September 2, 201014 yr Can't wait for him to come back and team up with JJ. The Battery of Tommy John!
September 2, 201014 yr I've never heard of an non pitcher getting Tommy John. Probably have been plenty of them, but this is the first one I've heard of.   Kelly Johnson who is having a great year for Arizona had it. Roberto Alomar Luis Gonzalez.  Full list: Baseball Reference
September 2, 201014 yr Pudge will most likely be available, as the Nats have a young man that is supposedly ready to come up to the Show. If he is affordable do we take a chance he has something left ? He does know how to handle young pitchers which we have a ton of.

September 2, 201014 yr i say we spend some money and get victor martinez. bad news with baker and im a little pissed that they didnt have the surgery sooner. this always happens where they try to rest it and rest it knowing there is merely a slim chance of full recovery.

September 2, 201014 yr donnie murphy also had surgery today. definitely someone we should re-sign for the bench next year.

But maybe they wouldn't be against trading him since they have an upcoming catcher, specially since Pudge wants to be an everyday player. I personally think it might cost us too much, but I definitely wouldn't mind seeing Pudge in a Marlins uniform again.
September 2, 201014 yr donnie murphy also had surgery today. definitely someone we should re-sign for the bench next year.  I think that's the plan. Isn't he still under club control, though?
September 2, 201014 yr Well, this probably means Baker and Paulino are both gone once the season is over. We could have two new catchers (although probably one plus Brett Hayes or something) next year.
September 2, 201014 yr Definitly not mind seeing Pudge in a Marlins uni?  The man is a 1st ballot HOFer, if the front office wants a Solid Catcher get Pudge... I already go to all home games but pretty sure getting Pudge would also get more butts in the seats! Also, punks like Nyjel Morgan wouldn't pull that stuff he did to Brett Hayes had it been pudge!

September 2, 201014 yr i think the front office will definitely give baker another shot when he is healthy. Â its sad because this was really a big year for him after having two solid years in 08 and 09.

September 2, 201014 yr Also, punks like Nyjel Morgan wouldn't pull that stuff he did to Brett Hayes had it been pudge! Who the hell is Nyjel Morgan?
September 2, 201014 yr So long Bake, I enjoyed watching you play. Good luck and hope you catch on somewhere.
September 2, 201014 yr The goog thing is we'll finally have a catcher that can throw out runners. If TJ gives pitchers bionic arms, it should work for catchers too.
