Don Lee is another name that I like, and I hope he develops into the leadoff that he looks that he can be.

Donnie has been developing really well. I'm hoping he can take a big step forward next year, steal a rotation spot, and not let it go! But yeah, it's tough finding really good catchers who can do both. There are four, maybe five high quality catchers and then a hue drop off with everyone else. Mead is good, not great, but has consistently been ranked #5, but he doesn't really "feel" like a top five catcher. Lee will be interesting too, lot of upside and if his 20 homer season is legit, he could be a part of our lineup for a long time.
