Mauer was a fake catcher. More than half of his games were at positions other than catcher.



It hasn't even been 10 years. Not saying .365 isn't impressive, but it doesn't get him in the Hall.

His stats don't jump out as being truly great. Not enough for the Hall.

Did anyone ever touch the jersey patch and sniff it, hoping to feel some of the game action embedded in the fibers?

I know...that sounds kind of sad.

In 921 of those games, he played catcher (921/1858 = 49.5%).

In 885 of those games, he started the game at catcher (885/1858 =...

You can't really compare his stats to other catchers in the HOF when less than 50% of his career games were at catcher! He was a kind of hybrid C/1B/DH. To view him as a catcher, he...

Can you slab non-sports CDVs and Cabinets?

I was wondering if SGC, PSA, etc, encapsulate the average CDV or cabinet? If you send them a CDV of a politician or some other figure, will they accept it?
