My Take

Bryan Holaday is exactly the sort of ballplayer I have a soft spot for. A catcher out of Dallas who broke in with the Tigers in 2012 and then suited up for the Rangers, Red Sox, Marlins, Orioles and Diamondbacks, he was never a marquee slugger, yet team after team wanted his hands behind the plate. Catching is the most thankless, cerebral job on the diamond, reading pitchers and absorbing the game in a crouch. I admire the quiet professionalism of a career built on trust rather than headlines. Players like him are the unglamorous spine that holds a clubhouse together.
