I didn't say he wasn't. But he was an excellent backup catcher for the Dodgers, who got him for two permanent minor leaguers. He was an okay starting catcher, but John Stearns was better. I will never forget when John Stearns took on Dave Parker at the plate, and won. Parker had to be fitted with a hockey mask or something.

Speaking of Pirates, Felix Milan was fun to watch until Ed Ott took him out of the American game with a horrific cheap shot.
