Narvaez was acquired from the Yankees in a rare trade between longtime AL East rivals and opened the season as Connor Wong's backup, but Wong's early injury and subsequent struggles allowed Narvaez to seize the regular catching job. He delivered a modest 97 wRC+ yet still batted cleanup for a month during a strong second-half run. His barrel and hard-hit rates sit slightly above average, though his aggressive chase tendencies create too much swing-and-miss and cap his offensive output. Narvaez is slated to be the primary catcher this season, and while Wong held that role a year ago before regressing, Narvaez offers a stronger skill set and is the superior defender, even finishing as a Gold Glove finalist. He profiles as a cost-effective No. 2 catcher in mixed leagues. Read Past Outlooks
