2 always sounded right to me
In case of emergency - i.e. the regular catcher gets hurt, he could be used as a pinch hitter, catches Sundays to give the regular catcher a day off.
too bad for years - the Phillies have only rolled with one catcher.

Yup. In an emergency, that's who you plug in, but carrying 3 is superfluous absent expanded roster limits. |

Depends how good your 3rd catcher can hit.

I could have sworn he had. They always referred to him as the “emergency catcher.” |

I could have sworn he had. They always referred to him as the “emergency catcher.” I can almost see SportsCentre opening with him in catcher's shin pads. We can't both be wrong. |
