Default Roger Bresnahan

Posted By: Patrick McMenemy

Here's a link to a site that provides excellent reasons why Roger Bresnahan most certainly does belong in the HOF:

Key quote: "We all know that Bresnahan was far and away the best offensive catcher of his era, but he may have simply been one of the best offensive players of his era as well."

Lastly, I'm sure all of the experts on Roger Bresnahan were also aware that he played every single position on the diamond including pitcher. He broke in as a pitcher and went 4-0 in 1897. He was also generally regarded as one of the top baserunners of his era as well.
