The roster spot that seems redundant to me right now is the one occupied by Geoff Blum. I don't want to see him in the outfield again. SDPG: Thanks for the 411 on Barfield. That's awesome!<p class="top-comments">Current score: <span class="top-comments-karma" id="karma-19685">0</span> <small>(to vote for this comment, please visit the site)</small></p> I don’t have a problem with carrying three catchers for precisely the reason Masticore317 mentions in #21.

Best part about having Bowen is it allowes us to use Bard as a pinch hitter.<p class="top-comments">Current score: <span class="top-comments-karma" id="karma-19682">0</span> <small>(to vote for this comment, please visit the site)</small></p> KRS1 - I guess you’re right…I just feel that the 3rd catcher is only necessary because of Piazza, where the roster spot could be better utilized elsewhere.
