Now that pitchers and catchers have reported to Indians camp in Goodyear, AZ, the 2016 season is officially underway. In preparation of the season, I will take an extended look at the Indians’ roster from all angles. I will highlight the strengths and weaknesses of the team and evaluate exactly what it will take to raise the first World Championship banner since 1948. Today we will take a look at Yan Gomes and his 2015, and what he needs to do to be the best catcher in the American League again.
Nobody really knew what to expect out of Yan Gomes when the Indians acquired him from Toronto along with Mike Aviles in exchange for Esmil Rogers.
