Lucroy gets no respect. The guy's bat is more productive than any in our top 3. MVP candidate in 2014.

I have him as well. Thought he should have won the last round.

True on Lucroy, but its hard to say that the guys voted in front of him are not worthy of being in the top 3, IMO

Molina hasn't been that good for 3 years now. Perez never had a WAR above 3.7 in his career. Posey, I can maybe see.
 
My personal rankings would be:
 
1. Jonathan Lucroy
2. Buster Posey
3. Yadier Molina
4. Salvador Perez
5. Russell Martin

I don't know about Lucroy being the best catcher in the bigs, but he certainly is in the discussion .  If Yadi is better, it isn't by much.

Lucroy has a 2.2 WAR this season compared to 0.7 for Yadi who has been on a decline now the last few years.

Luc was injured last year and picked up in the 2nd half. Year before that he was a top 2 C in the MLB
