To my surprise, this article grew unexpectedly large. Rather than skimp on the last portions, the article is split into two parts.
Part 1:
- Returning backup catchers from last season: Jose Herrera.
- AAA catchers for the Diamondbacks: Ronaldo Hernandez, and Adrian De Castillo.
- AA/A+ catchers for the Diamondbacks: JJ D”Orazio, Christian Cerda, David Martin, and Caleb Roberts.
Part 2:
- Free Agent Backup Catchers with power batting: perhaps Gary Sanchez.
- Trade Candidates: perhaps David Fry (Guardians) and Cesar Salazar (Astros).
