If they didn't think Melendez could catch he should have been dealt before he ever touched the MLB...but no now here we are with a catcher in the outfield with next to zero value.

What are you talking about? They dont trust self scouting? I think it's more of the case that they are just absolutely terrible at scouting. They suck at it and so they have no idea if someone is going to amount to anything at the major leagues. I think they had every intention of playing Melendez at C, but they wanted his bat in the majors and didn't really have a place to play him. They're not moving Salvy off C.
