The Top 10 Catchers in Habla

We start a new series today looking at the top 10 players at each position in Habla. First up is the catchers. This is by far the weakest position in Habla; one where defensive consistency is as important as offensive output. Many teams look for that guy to simply be a role player. The guys on this list, however, go beyond filling a role. They are prime hitters in their respective lineups as well as key defenders. Here are the Top 10 cathcers in Habla.

1. Roy Campanella (SEA)

His .305 career average and 364 career homeruns speaks for themselves. Career Pirate will hope to continue his dominance at the plate for Seattle.

2. Brandon Inge (CIN)

He is coming off a tremendous 2026 season, one that saw him hit .309 with 29 homers and 81 rbi. Very Solid for a backstop.

3. Joey Mauer (KC)

He is off to an incredible start in the 2027 season. At just 23, he is already one of the best catchers in the league and will be for many years to come.

4. Crash Davis (LAD)

Like Campanella, Davis is suiting up for a new club this year. After 14 seasons as the backstop for the White Sox, he will bring his 370+ career homers to Los Angeles.

5. Brook Fordyce (BAL)

He is a career .296 hitter who averages close to 20 homeruns per season and has driven in close to 1000 runs.

6. Cooper Walker (CHA)

Walker is really coming into his own as a power hitter. He hit 55 homeruns during the 2025-2026 campaigns.

7. Bill Dickey (DET)

He is a tremendous defender, who can hit for average and power. He has hit 24 or more homers in a season 4 times.

8. Matthew Lecroy (PIT)

He has found a home in Pittsburgh. After riding the pine for several years, he now has a full time gig with the Pirates and his showing the potential to be a top catcher.

9. Benjie Molina (COL)

This strong-armed catcher is a serious power threat for the Rockies. He just surpassed 300 homeruns for his career.

10. John Hough (CLE)

He is a very good fielder with plenty of power. In his first full season, he showed what he could do in 2026, posting a .274 average with 23 homers and 74 rbi.
