The 2025 season has been one to forget for Angels’ catcher Logan O’Hoppe. After a promising beginning to his major league career, O’Hoppe has taken a step back both at the plate and behind it this year. And while the Angels surely want O’Hoppe serving as their primary catcher in 2026, they may be forced to look elsewhere, even at his 2025 running mate behind the dish.
The stats for Travis d’Arnaud are not impressive this season. While he had some months where his bat was hot, the totality of his season would not cause the common baseball fan to look at him and think of him as a player they’d want starting for their favorite team.
