In my humble opinion, the catcher is the most important player on the field. He is a team leader, he is tough as nails, he is very smart, he has a great arm, he has the best reaction time, he swings the bat with authority, and he probably will be injured more than the others.

In other word they are very unique individuals.

Most good pitchers and I say most, are good pitchers because they are fortunate to have a great catcher.

I have great respect for the tough guy behind the dish.

I think a team needs several for the reasons you have stated, some never make it past the bullpen but they are important as is the starter. The bullpen guy may be called upon at a moments notice to be the starter.
