You said i was cherry picking stats, which would insinuate those stats were misleading. So if you think he's a good offensive catcher, then why the frick are you busting my balls about posting stats that support it.
Because you cherry picked two stats from what so far can only be described as an outlier year for Grandal. I then illustrated the reasoning to you by showing you Ramos' outlier year last year and saying that you can't necessarily make sweeping conclusions about a player's ascent in baseball based on one year--to say nothing of one or two categories in one year.

Grandal before 2016- 118 wRC+
Grandal in 2016- 122 wRC+
The idea that it was a crazy outlier year has been debunked.
Molina was a great player. Borderline MVP candidate in his prime, but I fail to see what he does better than Grandal now. Grandal is the better hitter, framer, and he even threw out a higher percentage of runners last year. I'm sure Molina calls a great game, but I doubt it makes up for all of that. Molina has been more durable, but at 34 that may change soon too.
