Fantasy Catcher Rankings: Week Three

There are a slew of new options at backstop that have emerged over the past two weeks, especially when you consider how often fantasy players will rely on someone old like Jason Varitek, and just stick him in there and move on. Catcher shouldn't be given that much attention, but you at least have know when to jump ship and hop onto a new option.

J.R. Towles, for instance, is totally legit. He might not have Brad Ausmus' defense just quite yet, but he doesn't have Ausmus' weak stick either. Geovany Soto is rapidly rising up the list of new catchers that fantasy players want to jump onto. Ryan Doumit is a K machine, but he's a masher too and has a ton of power in his bat; I'd be all over him if I didn't own an elite catcher or one of the two above. Ramon Hernandez is hot right now too, but I think he's more of a sell high if you can move catchers at all.
