Crooked Pitch

Here is the list of fantasy catchers who play in the National League West Division. You’ll only find players on this list that will or could make a fantasy impact in 2008.

The NL West catcher situation is something of an enigma going into 2008. Only two teams (Dodgers and Giants) have full time starting catchers. The other three teams areplanning to enter Spring Training with a platoon situation at catcher. If those three teams keep platooning the catchers throughout the season, they’re value will be lower that a full time, starter. However, if a few of these guys win the positional battles, their stock will rise and this list could change dramatically.

1. Russell Martin | Los Angeles Dodgers
2. Bengie Molina | San Francisco Giants
3. Josh Bard | San Diego Padres
4. Chris Snyder | Arizona Diamondbacks
5. Yorvit Torrealba | Colorado Rockies
6. Michael Barrett | San Diego Padres
7. Chris Iannetta | Colorado Rockies
8. Miguel Montero | Arizona Diamondbacks
9. Guillermo Rodriguez | San Francisco Giants
