LA Angels: Top 3 Catchers Remaining in Free Agency

While the LA Angels best option overall may be trading for Willson Contreras from the Cubs, Billy Eppler would surely like to hold onto all the prospects he can. Instead, these three names might be the best route for the Angels as they prioritize starting pitchers on the trading block.

Jason Castro

Arguably the best catcher left on a barren market, Jason Castro is going to find a multi-year deal somewhere. He is a left-handed bat and absolutely mashes against right-handed pitchers, but is a near zero against southpaws on the mound.

It’s hard to view him as an everyday catcher because of his splits, but he could be a huge upgrade and at least a part-time upgrade for the Angels.
