It’s the OBP, Stupid!

I hope the signing of Miguel Olivo truly does mean that the Rockies intend to give Chris Iannetta the full workload of a starting catcher. It’d be a shame if Jim Tracy and the Rockies organization was tempted to play Olivo more than necessary, considering he has a lifetime OBP of .278, compared to Iannetta’s .361. If Iannetta gets the playing time he deserves, then I expect some nice fantasy value from him out of the catcher spot.
