What teams need a catcher?

As we know, one of the big storylines of the spring for the Red Sox is how the catcher position is going to shake out for 2019. Last year the team managed to hold on to their depth and carry all three of Sandy León, Christian Vázquez and Blake Swihart through the entire season. Vázquez missing a big chunk of the year made that roster crunch a bit easier, of course. With Dustin Pedroia healthy now, the roster just doesn’t have room for three backstops and Dave Dombrowski has made it clear that it is very unlikely they enter Opening Day with each of these guys on the roster.
