Almost all of his hits came while playing catcher, so I'd guess that he would be in the top 5 for career hits while playing catcher and likely in the top 5 for stolen bases while playing catcher as well. The OBP is also pretty stout.
He was well past his prime when he when he donned a Royal jersey, but he was also one of the best catchers in baseball for a number of years.
To be honest, he's a guy who is probably just a little shy of a ticket to Cooperstown...
