Yeah, they asked JPA about his thumb in the post game interview, and he admitted it hurt and felt like ti was going to fall off.
I wonder if he's a guy they think could hit enough to warrant a position conversion. It's great to have a productive catcher, but man do you ever take a beating playing that position. I wonder if a guy like Arencibia could be a LF or 3B if they felt he'd take too much punishment behind home plate.
