I'm sure the splits last year had nothing to do with the fact Salty was catching a washed up knuckle baller, John Lackey, and Dice K / while Tek almost exclusively only caught Beckett who had a great year.
Baseball wins almost never seem to be about one thing. You guys on here seem so much smarter then me about baseball, I'm really surprised you make the leap that over the last season and a half we were just a catcher away from not loosing any games. Because you are attributing every loss when Salty plays to Salty..... come on you guys know better then that.
I'm not saying Salty is great, but he should not be used as a scape goat for every loss he plays in or an excuse for bad pitching. If every pitcher pitched horrible to him maybe a point could be drawn, but we have seen some starters and a bunch of relievers pitch damn well to him.
