Its sad when we are happy to have Bard as our catcher

But at least Bard is minimally competent.

At least Bard has relegated him to backup/Felix duties?

It's all Rob Johnson's fault.

More Josh Bard!!

Karma police, arrest this man.

Felix needs to start working with other catchers again.

Yes.

This is just the most hilarious thing ever.

On another note, while I hate Rob, it probably isn't quite fair to attribute all of the wild pitches to him.

Adam Moore's also been pretty awful behind the plate.

Fucking catcher's mitts. How do they work?!

Is this the official scorekeeper’s version of WP vs PB, or updated to reflect how many pitches Johnson actually should have caught/blocked?

Sometimes a pitch is legitimately wild, but watching him stab at a pitch bouncing in front of his foot , and also make no attempt to block it, makes me angrier than some of the other stupid things we’ve seen the M’s do this year.
