2018 was a lost season for Stephen Vogt. The veteran backstop injured his shoulder in spring training and then re-injured it on a rehab assignment during the season, leading to year-ending shoulder surgery. The Milwaukee Brewers had to acquire Erik Kratz to fill the hole Vogt left behind.
Kratz turned into a little bit of a fan-favorite himself, and he’s been brought back on a $1.2 million deal, which avoided arbitration. With Kratz, Manny Pina, and Jacob Nottingham in the major league mix, is there room for Vogt on the roster?
