2024 Diamondbacks Player Reviews: #13, Gabriel Moreno

Review

There is a strong argument to be made that Gabriel Moreno is the most impactful position player on the team, over even the likes of the Corbin Carroll sparkplug or the Ketel Marte MVP-caliber season. The pitchers look more comfortable on the mound when throwing to him. Perhaps it is how he calls the game and receives pitches, rarely letting anything get by him. Perhaps it is the fact that having Moreno behind the plate means the pitchers need worry far less about base runners trying to swipe an extra 90 feet, as Moreno has spent the last two seasons proving himself as one of the very best at gunning down would-be base stealers.
