I don't know anyone that's seriously played the game that thinks there should be a rule change here. This is just another agent talking out of his ass; he's probably a big basketball fan anyway.
Sure you can. The runner has the right to the basepath, second and third baseman simply aren't in front of the base that counts for a run and thus don't have any interest in putting themselves in that position. It's also something that just kind of comes with being a catcher; it's a gritty position and it's a bit of a rite of passage to defend the plate.
