To be fair, the catcher's gear really does nothing for them in a collision at the plate. It's designed to protect them from baseballs, not a 200+ pound athlete charging into them at full speed.

Re: 5/30 - 6/5 Game Discussion Thread
True, but when you have to think about a ball it is hard to get ready for that impact. To be honest I am more concern with concussions. That is why I don't like those plays.Comment

I don't remember any outrage at this either, the list goes on and on. It's happened before, but because Posey got hurt people are trying to make it a much bigger deal then it really is.Saints, LSU, Seminoles, Pelicans, Marlins, LightningComment

Re: 5/30 - 6/5 Game Discussion Thread
Did I not say something about it because I did tell my friend I hate that play Snow did. I said that someone can get hurt real bad. Unless I am missing something I just don't get how you can say I am not against those plays. also they had no plate to slide too. To me that is why it is a punk move. If you show me a picture that show a plate open somewhere and they still take out the catcher I will call it a punk move.Comment
