Anyone know how much a catcher's pitch-calling affects a pitching staff's effectiveness?  

My instincts are to seek out great defensive catchers (arm + PC) over the better hitting catchers... but maybe I'm wrong here.  Anyone have any info to share? 

Thanks!

.12 ERA per 10 points in PC.   More or less from an old study I did.    But still holds pretty true.
