Can you say "C"? That is not an honor easily obtained but earned through hard work 24/7 and Tek earned it.

Given the diversity of the human species, there is no “normal” human genome sequence. We are all mutants.

Tek was and still is one of the best strategic catchers in the MLB. he always did his homework, knew the opponents.
I don't think marteniz is that type player

What does that mean? Do you think he should have got more than what he did on his last contract? I don't know what he would have got from another team. Not trying to be a PIA here with this question but i think he did alright considering how his offensive production took a big slide down in the last few years. I heard he was coming back for his player option and would be the backup catcher. Doesn't sound like a bad way to end the career and collect a few million riding the bench and maybe catching once a week.

He's had a bad back for a few years but look at his record. The man eats innings and keeps them in games. $2.5M is relatively low gamble (Did I really just type that?)
