maxjusttyped Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 Carrying 3 catchers doesn't strike me as viable with the glut of 1b/DH types already on the roster. The Sox have been reluctant to play Vaughn in the OF for months, one of he or Eloy should be at DH (aside from the occasion game where Vaughn plays 1b & Abreu DHs) every game they're available through the end of this season. If Yaz is healthy enough to play, I think it has to be at catcher. There just isn't room on the roster to add another player to the regular DH mix, and that's the only scenario where I think carrying 3 catchers would make sense.

I think he will see a decent amount of time at DH. It’s pretty much why I see Sheets going down assuming everyone is healthy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also given that Kopech will need more rest in the second half if we have any hope of using him in October. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it hops on the way home, there's a good chance he's whiffing on it. Bump, for those watching the game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
