Jorge Alfaro was once a pretty good-hitting catcher. In 2019 with the Marlins he batted .262/.312/.425 with 18 home runs. Since the pandemic year of 2020, though, Alfaro’s offense has taken a nose dive. Last year, he played only 18 games at the MLB level and batted just .146/.212/.292, split between the Rockies and Red Sox.
