Just a repost but..
Mike Napoli career CS% 24%. Career OPS+ 118.
Victor Martinez career CS% 24%. Career OPS+ 120.
Both are bat first catchers, and both have bad reputations as game callers. Mike Napoli is 3 years younger than V.Mart and is going to be significantly cheaper.
As a plus Victor is actually way worse than Napoli vs RHs this season and is having a down season at an age where you'd be a lot more worried about it.
Why is the perception so different betwen these two players? Is it soley due to AVG and Ks and Mike Scoscia's opinion?
