Show Notes

The San Diego Padres are facing a catcher crisis, with Freddy Fermin as the primary catcher and Luis Campusano struggling in his backup role. Campusanos defense is decent but not exceptional, and his bat isnt performing. The Padres farm system is depleted after last years trades, limiting their trade options. One potential solution is Ben Rortvedt, a catcher recently designated for assignment by the New York Mets, who has shown promise with the Dodgers and in the postseason. If Campusano continues to underperform, acquiring Rortvedt on a budget could help stabilize the catcher position.
