Daily Hammer Podcast: Breaking down the Manny Piña signing

The Braves made their first addition of the offseason on Monday evening by signing veteran catcher Manny Piña to a two-year deal worth $8 million. Talking Chop’s Shawn Coleman and Scott Coleman discussed the addition of Piña, his impact on the roster for 2022 and what the future may hold for two of the Braves’ top catching prospects. Podcast highlights include:

  • General thoughts on what Piña will bring to the team
  • The importance of depth at catcher, especially after an injury-mired 2021 season
  • Does this increase the likelihood William Contreras or Shea Langeliers gets traded this winter?
