Joe Mauer is trending towards being just the 20th hall of fame catcher in MLB history! This is a bit of a surprise for some, but as the votes continue to pour in for Mauer, it only makes me think of one man... BUSTER POSEY. Because at the end of the day, he and Mauer share some very interesting similarities! But I think Posey's numbers actually line up more with another catcher who ISN'T in the Hall of Fame, but probably should be...Thurman Munson! So is Buster Posey a Hall of Famer??

In this video we unpack Buster Posey's excellent career from several different angles, including a few very interesting tid bits, before seeing how Posey compares to both Joe Mauer and Thurman Munson. We go through traditional stats, analytics, awards, and more for each of them! ... But when the dust settles, which side of the question will we land on???

Do you think Buster Posey is bound for Cooperstown? Should Thurman Munson also be in? Let me know in the comments!
