Now maybe Fields just sucked, but that's going to require a lot more in-depth look than I'm willing to give it unless/until we sign the guy. And it's the kind of look I suspect Veach has been giving it for some number of weeks.
Mooney might be awful but I also think it will jump out on tape whether or not he truly was. This feels like it should be a pretty easy analysis to do and I think I'll probably defer to the team on this one.
I was happy to pound the table for Gabe Davis (at maybe 60% of what he ended up getting though). I'm not gonna do that for Mooney. I think I have a better feel for Davis - good and bad - than I have for Mooney. But a fair bit.

It's the catch rate that scares me. You can't blame all of that on Fields.
