1/ Rau Sem may has a higher Catch and Block, but in reponse, Shinsuke has a higher GP and TP, which will help him stay in the field longer and uses his hissatsu many more times; and these 2 stats are important for all kind of characters, not just Keeper alone.

2/ Having more Keeper moves doesn't mean that Rau Sem's moveset is completely better than Shinsuke's. A Block hissatsu is needed for Keepers, too, as they can steal the ball fro the FWs if they're fast enough, and Shinsuke's Speed is higher than Rau Sem's, too.

3/ Shibire Healing is needed for a Keeper, it will help protect his Shibire Gauge for a longer amount of time. Rau Sem doens't have this skill, and most of his hissatsu don't recover the Shibire Gauge like Shinsuke's hissatsu do, so his Shibire Gauge will surely break down faster than Shinsuke's. And also, this is not all Shinsuke can get, he can also get Catch Plus 30 when Mixi Maxing, too, and this will make his Catch Stat slightly higher than Rau Sem's.
