The A's signed Chris Herrmann to a one-year, $1 million contract at the MLB Winter Meetings earlier this month, not long after they re-signed Josh Phegley to a one-year, $1.075 million deal, so right now, they're Oakland's two catchers.

Yasmani Grandal
Grandal is the last available "top-tier" catcher available, and he's expected to land a four-year contract in the range of $60 million, according to Fancred's Jon Heyman.
