Jose Trevino has proven to be a pleasant surprise for the Yankees. With a career OPS of .668, the Yankees probably expected Trevino to give excellent defense from the catcher position with marginal offensive capability. However, Trevino has provided a well above-average bat to go along with his typically stellar defense. He has a legitimate chance of being an All-Star and earning a trip to Dodger Stadium in July. The question becomes how Trevino stacks up to other catchers in the American League. I will look through the top three offensive performers (apart from Trevino) among catchers on the All-Star ballot in the American League.
