James McCann is the second-best free agent catcher available this offseason. However, he does have flaws the New York Mets should look out for.

J.T. Realmuto is alone among the top-tier free agent catchers this offseason. The former Philadelphia Phillies backstop is one of the primary targets for the New York Mets to add to their roster. However, it’s always important to have a backup plan.
