CN,

I agree that Joe Torre is an interesting situation. However, he should get in because he's an outstanding hitting catcher. Probably among the top ten hitting catchers of all time.

The rub against him is that when he won the NL MVP he was playing third so that shouldn't help him move up on the list of best hitting catchers.

Since his career as a manager isn't over yet, I wouldn't want to speculate where he ranks among managers.
