My point was that Posada is the absolute worst "catcher of pitches" I have seen, ever.

I also think people are greatly undervaluing the importance of catching pitches as part of a catcher's value.

On what do you base your opinion that Posada is the worst -- I'm sorry, the absolute worst -- "catcher of pitches"?

Although I am not really clear on what "catcher of pitches" means, I would submit that any measurable negative effect of his defense (which is far from league best but also not league worst) is more than offset by his bat.
