Earlier this week I established my starting rotation for the Cleveland Indians All-Time team, and now I will select my catcher.
I picked my starter today, and in a later piece I will pick my bench which will include another catcher, but for now I’m going with my All-Time starting backstop.
Victor Martinez is my choice for catcher on the greatest roster in Indians history. This was by no means an easy decision as there were so many factors to consider. Ultimately, he was just the most well-rounded at the position.
VMart played 684 games behind the plate across eight seasons for the Tribe from 2002-2009.
