A look at early catcher framing trends for the Rockies.
With the first month of the season coming to a close, it seems like an appropriate time to review how our catching staff has performed. First, a quick disclaimer: everything is pretty much a small sample, so I’m not going to be drawing conclusions from this—and you probably shouldn’t, either. This is more about trying to find trends that we can continue to watch for as the season progresses.
When the Rockies acquired Nick Hundley and moved Rosario from behind the plate, the idea was to gain some defensive value behind from the catching position.
