As we sit here In January, only weeks until pitchers and catchers report, New York still has areas that need to be improved.
One of those areas – much to the distaste of fans – is the catcher position.
According to a report by the New York Daily News’ John Harper, the Mets seem set at that position, and will more than likely go into spring training, and the 2017 season, with Travis d’Arnaud as the starter and Rene Rivera as his backup. In regards to the team, one doesn’t need eyeglasses to see that the catcher position isn’t the strongest of areas on this roster.
