Humans are on the low end of the power scale, especially at high TV.
Nerfing their Catchers, already considered to be one of the poorest positionals for their cost in the game, would virtually eliminate them from the team. One upgrade I have seen mooted (as part of Galak's suggestions that introduced the rules that became FUMBBL house rules, was an Av bonus (Av 8) for no cost.

That does make sense. Anyone else have thoughts?

again, agree wih colin. i dont see any reason fluff wise OR in terms of balancing to not give the catchers av8.
what i like about the roster is that it changes from the humans versility of team fielding to team building. you basically have to decide what route you want to go, but i really think its one of the rare rosters where you actually think whom to buy.

Throwers don't need a price cut, they are already great value and pretty easy to skill up. Blitzers cost too much and catchers are rubbish, losing MA for gaining AV makes them worse,
My preferred Human roster would be.
Ogre -10K (same price reduction to ogre team but not pact)
Blitzer -10K
Catchers either -10K or +AV for free
Re-roll +10K
This would keep them about the same at low TV but give them more of a fighting chance at higher TV, I've found Blitzers die very easily and replacing them can take a while, especially if you lose 2 or an ogre as well.

Humans don't need a nerf. As has already been stated, they are one of the weakest Tier 1 teams at high TV. Speed and positionals is all they have. Leave 'em alone!
