Talk:Bengie Molina

Defense
I don't get it, Bengie is horrible defensively. He throws runners stealing second base at an 18% success rate, yet this article says about how he is great defensively. I don't get it.

I don't think catchers that are "horrible defensively" win 2 gold gloves. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.6.185.21 (talk) 05:57, 26 January 2010 (UTC)

Measuring defensive worth by Gold Gloves is like saying someone is a good hitter by citing RBI totals. --98.116.175.52 (talk) 01:11, 6 April 2010 (UTC)

World Series
Would it be appropriate to add him as a 2010 World Series champion in the infobox since he received a World Series ring? --Coingeek (talk) 20:58, 7 March 2011 (UTC)

2010 WS
He won a ring in 2010. He was on the Giants roster during the season. Counts as a title for him. Braque6 (talk) 07:30, 12 February 2020 (UTC)

Angels section name
Technically, the Angels changed their name from "Anaheim Angels" to "Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim" in 2005, Molina's last season with them. However, "Anaheim Angels/Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim (1998-2005)" is a very long name for the section. Would it make more sense to merely call it "Anaheim Angels (1998-2005)"?

Big Money origin?
If anyone can find a source explaining the origins of the nickname "Big Money," that would be great. I assume part of the reason is that Molina's initials are BM, but SABR says only that he was nicknamed that, no explanation on why. Sanfranciscogiants17 (talk) 03:17, 31 October 2021 (UTC)
