Oh dude I won't argue with you on the bias towards older catchers. I'm just saying for the majority of the year, that's how it goes. It's definitely starting to change. Teams (mid market teams at that) cutting players simply because their woefully unproductive. Matt Morris got cut and it cut them 10MM plus whatever they've payed him for the first month of the season. It's obvious the league is going younger, but on top of the fact that there is a lack of quality young catchers in the minors (and the Rangers have 3 of them including Salty, who may be end up at 1B), a lot of guys when they hit the majors don't pan out well.
Obviously there are exceptions to the rule but I'm really intrigued to see where the league is headed in regards to veterans.

Worst signing in the history of pro sports? I think so.
