Answer
Hey AJ,

There are far fewer catchers than any other position.. This was a very easy question for me.. Your chances of making it to the major leagues is FAR better if you are a good catcher or can throw the ball 95 miles an hour.. 2nd baseman are a dime a dozen..
Go for the catching position , for sure..
Good Luck...
