2021 report card: Andrew Knapp
John Hefti-USA TODAY Sports J.T. Realmuto catches a lot of games. That is what he wants to do, that is what the team wants him to do, but he cannot be behind the plate for every single game. There has to be someone else, someone capable of providing maybe not the same kind of production that Realmuto does, but perhaps at least a slightly less steep decline.
Andrew Knapp did not provide that in 2021. And it’s time to move on from him.
