Wilson Ramos kidnapped

In an incredibly scary development, Nationals' catcher Wilson Ramos has been kidnapped in his home country of Venezuela. Not that it's any less terrifying, but I hope this is only an attempt to collect a ransom.

Ramos posted a great season as a 23-year-old catcher in 2011. Check out the top OPS+ figures for catchers in their Age 23 season (minimum 400 plate appearances.)

Looks like Ramos has a great shot at a wonderful MLB career. I certainly hope he gets the opportunity.
