A year and a half ago, I wrote about the potential for Connor Wong to be right on par with other AL East catchers who were considered some of the best at their craft. Since then… he hasn’t quite lived up to those standards.
Currently, FanGraphs ranks the Red Sox’ catching 28th in the league, which isn’t great. Even less ideal is the fact that the Orioles, Blue Jays and Yankees rank within the top-7 of those depth chart rankings, and even the Rays who have Danny Jansen and a dude who hadn’t logged more than 40 games in a season since last year are ranked 21st.
