Guy has a career OPS of 114--not great. But if he has 3 or 4 more years like he did in 2022, sure its a definite possibility.
I didn't look it up, but I assume he means from a Catcher.

Oh, if that is the case, I am not sure top 5 OPS for a catcher is major accomplishment.

The way it keeps getting diluted, I guess anything is possible, but with Posey and Molina going in that should satisfy the demand for catchers for many years I would think.

Do you think Molina getting in is a foregone conclusion? I know he is an amazing fielder, but an OPS+ of 96?

Posey won ROY, MVP, a batting title, and 3 World Series, so I think he has a better case.

I know my view is the minority here and the consensus seems to be that they are hall of famers, but Molina’s traditional and advanced stat lines both are clearly below Cooperstown standard. Posey played well enough but for so few games that I have a hard time seeing it. Someone from that 3 WS Giants team has to make it though so he’ll sail in.

Realmuto is not on track, he’s below any serious candidate.

Deserving or not is not the issue. I think Posey and Molina will nonetheless make it.
