  Scouting Report & Links      
         
  Scouting Report: Medium, filled-out frame. Below-average hit tool, limited power and speed. Strong defensive catcher known for his solid work ethic, game calling ability, strong arm, and elite pitch framing. Valuable Triple-A depth due to his defense.   Note: The scouting reports of certain veteran minor leaguers acquired via free agency or waivers are abridged and will not be regularly updated or expanded.
