Yadier Molina has long been the St. Louis Cardinals catcher. And in our enlightened sabermetric age, he has gained a bit of a reputation. The players, oldheads, and legacy media have never questioned Molina's greatness. They see him as one of the best catchers of all time. But some critical stat nerds are perplexed. They simply don't see it. His numbers beg the question: is Yadier Molina overrated?

In this episode of Baseball Bits, a Foolish Baseball production, we'll try to reach the truth. We'll talk about Yadier Molina Hall of Fame chances, the Yadier Molina Cardinals, Yadier Molina arm, Yadier Molina framing, and Yadier Molina defense.

We'll also draw comparisons to other catching greats, most notably Yogi Berra, Johnny Bench, and Jason Kendall? Really? Jason Kendall? Don't forget there will be love for his brother, Jose Molina. Bengie Molina is sadly missing from this one, but the Molina Brothers have certainly left behind a legacy. Yadi Molina really is the best of them all, but Jose's defense was special.

I hope this video leaves behind a legacy too.
