That lurch he does is... yeah. Sometimes I think he might cost his pitchers strikes on 50/50 pitches because of how obvious it is.
I actually think he is so big he gets calls other catchers won't because ups adjust their zone sometimes (see Blue Jays, Game 6) [Reply]

When a pitch is on the corner he moves it to the middle. I think he is more likely to get the call just leaving it on the corner. [Reply]

Like flopping in basketball, framing of pitches shouldn't exist and should be a fineable and bannable offense. Anything with the sole purpose of trying to trick the ump or official should not be tolerated. I realize in realtime it is difficult to govern but these things should be punished retroactively so nobody ever tries to do it again. Otherwise what you get is James Harden head snapping and flopping for 3 times as many fouls as an actual player that deserves it. [Reply]
