Well, the actual number is a surprisingly a bit lower than 100. It's closer to...

2027 - Jing-quo Liu for $270k
2030 - Mike Pizzo for $1.3M
2032 - Josh Wool for $500k
2034 - Philip Scheffer for $375k

... four. Huh! I must have used hyperbole. Which is okay as long as you only use it to the media and not when filing financial statements with the league, the IRS, and your owner. - Hold on, Steve from Accounting. - Is that...? - Oh. - (manually changes the second 1 in the 11,703 season tickets sold to a 4) Send it to Valdes like that.

Generally, two catchers are enough, three are plenty, and four are too much. There can never be too much hyperbole, though, especially if the team has been in the weeds for a few years. But truth be told, if you do too much signing of catchers, ultimately you have to make cuts in other areas... which is why Cristiano Carmona now does double duty as infield coach. (looks out the window onto the field where Cristiano tried to show off a slide and now can't get back onto his four wheels)

I hope I could help you with your studies! You have chosen a good path towards a great future at Earl's Online University.

And say Hi to Earl from me. (blows dust off his 1973 certificate from Earl's Hot Dogs & Management Degrees)
