Who is Tyler Heineman?
Minor league catching depth
Insurance if they deal Marchan for pitching help.
Logan O’Hoppe has been going off recently. HR yesterday and in the first game today. Really hope he isn’t traded for some crumb reliever.

Could not agree more. They have great depth at catcher. If they can trade for good young arms, I am all for it, but lets stay away from the Workmans and Hembrees of he world.
O’Hoppe with another HR today…that is 4 in the last 10 games.
Now he has 8 on the season in just under 50 games
