Milazzo is the only solution at catcher.
Brady Neal, yesterday, hit a HR off of a top 100 MLB draft pick (Floyd) and threw out a 1st Rd Draft Pick& likely 1/1 (Crews) trying to steal a base. Id say that is a pretty good option.

Didn’t you say yesterday that Dugas could only make routine plays at 2nd base then and hour later he made a diving catch at 2nd?

It just amazes me that two different coaching staffs couldn’t teach this guy how to hit.

Catcher is the most important defensive position
The only position on the field that Batting avg should be overlooked for the most part. It's why guys like Yasmani Grandal has like a career BA of .230 and has a lengthy career in the show.
When you keep runners at first, you effectively change the score of the game.

If all you needed was a good coach to hit coaches would be the ones making 30 mill a year in the MLB not hitters.

Grandal has low Avg but Is a 3 outcome player : Hr / bb / K.
Milazzo hits like a National League pitcher

yap, and lets get a few things cleared up
1)the routine play quote was from jay johnson, not me.
2)the camera angle sucks, you can't really make out anything else other than he had to dive for it
3) 99% of the time if you have to dive for a pop fly in the infield, it is a user error.
-Player misjudges ball (sun, or bad read, or just not good defensively)
-More than 1 player miscommunicates
-or simply dives unnecessarily

do you have a better video of the play than the Jacques Doucet clip?
It's a popup on the infield. It's not rocket science, and doesn't exactly dispel Coach Johnson's lack of confidence in him to make anything more than the routine play

Because according to this moron, he has to let us know what Johnson really meant because we aren't smart enough to comprehend it.

Coach was giving an evaluation, yet you think it was some sort of compliment i guess? What did you take from it?

Coach Jay: I have confidence in Dugas to make all the routine plays.
Lester: Jay has no confidence in Dugas making plays that are not routine.

Saying that Dugas is capable of playing the position well isn’t exactly the insult you seem to think it is, Lester.

You take from it exactly what he said, which was he can trust Dugas to make all the routine plays. When you try to find the secret meaning in everything you end up with pure speculation. And then when you try to take it a step further and argue for days (in a thread not even about Dugas) that your speculation is absolute fact, you end up looking like a complete jackass.
Edit: get ready for a reply about my intelligence, because it's the last leg you have left to stand on.

He said he was great at making the routine play.
Easy for anyone to understand what he is saying, but you are absolutely welcomed to your own interpretation.
I dont think Johnson ever sets out to "insult" anyone. That's kind of silly. But he is brutally honest for the most part, and absolutely will send messages through the media.

quote:Thats the exact opposite of what Jay does. Paul would send messages through the media. Jay will protect his players at all times. He has literally told the media that he can’t answer a question because it’s not fair to the players and they know where they stand and what they need to do. I get why you’d say he does it though, it helps your interpretation. But it’s completely false.
