Catcher
Tier 1:
G. Sanchez | NY-Y | Great bat in a great lineup, just not willing to invest a high pick on a catcher.
W. Contreras |Chi-C |
Tier 2:
B. Posey | SF |
J.T. Realmuto | Mia |
S. Perez | KC |
Y. Molina | StL | Very undervalued and is very consistent (ADP 175)
B. McCann | Hou | Another undervalued veteran that can produce decent power numbers from the catcher position. (ADP 220)
W. Ramos | TB | He will be hitting in the heart of Tampa’s lineup. Should contribute to all categories except steals.
Tier 3:
E. Gattis | Hou |
M. Zunino | Sea |
J. McCann | Det | Should have his best season as a pro.
W. Castillo | Chi-W | He’s great when healthy but struggles to stay healthy.
Y. Grandal | LA-D | Very consistent and in a good lineup, can’t go wrong with Yasmani.
Tier 4:
M. Pena | Mil | I really like his bat and the lineup.
A. Hedges | SD |
R. Martin | Tor |
M. Weiters | Wash |
F. Cervelli | Pit |
A. Barnes | LA-D | Good young catcher but I don’t think the Dodgers are going to take the gig from Grandal.
J. Lucroy | Oak | I think he has a bounce back season and ends up being a relevant fantasy catcher.
T. d’Arnaud | NY-M |
R. Chirinos | Tex |
M. Maldonado | LA-A |
A. Avila | Ari | Undervalued and puts up pretty good numbers. Love his new home in Arizona.
Tier 5:
S. Vogt | Mil |
C. Ianneta | Col |
T. Flowers | Atl |
T. Barnhart | Cin |
B. Maxwell | Oak |
C. Sisco | Bal | Good young catcher that may get an opportunity for a lot of playing time.
J. Alfaro | Phi | Another good young catcher with the potential for a lot of playing time.
Y. Gomes | Cle |
C. Vazquez | Bos |
