The 2010’s are just about in the books, so it’s time to start looking back at the decade, and trying to assemble a consensus as to the best Diamondbacks team over that period. Beginning today, and for the next ten weeks, we’ll be looking at each position (splitting pitchers into starters and relievers). On Monday we’ll be presenting five candidates for your consideration, with a brief discussion of each and a poll. On Friday, we’ll be doing a deeper dive into the winner and their time with the Diamondbacks.
We start with the catchers, and it’s probably fair to say that this is an area where one candidate stands head and shoulders above the others.
