2015 Washington Nationals Player Review: Jose Lobaton

Jose Lobaton is the backup catcher for the Washington Nationals. His 2015 season was about what was expected from him when the season started. He has proven himself to be as good an option to go to as Wilson Ramos, and in one offensive category, he had a better year than Ramos despite not getting much playing time.

One of Matt Williams’ flaws as a manager was not giving starters enough time off and getting bench players enough playing time. Lobaton’s playing time certainly suffered because of this.
