I see no available catcher thats hits me in the face. Stay within. Hey, Pudge was 20 when he got to big leagues. He did alright. Romine can't make it if he doesn't get a chance. I remember when Yankee catcher Jake Gibbs retired early and I thought the Yankees were screwed. I said "Whose going to catch now? Thurman Munson?" At the time my comments were scary. Nobody knew much about Munson or if the Yankees could trust the pitching staff with such an inexperienced backstop. All that could be hoped for was that Munson would be able to hold the fort until another player became available in a trade. So much for my scouting talents.
