The Reds,com 40 man roster has shown only 1 catcher. Stephenson. One is not enough, especially with Stephenson injury history. So I said on here that Reds would have to make a move for more catchers. So OK, they added one. That makes 2. When Pitchers and Catchers report early to Spring Training, they will need more than 2 catchers. They have a ton of pitchers on the 40 man roster to sort through.
At least they now have more than just Stephenson. I'm still not sure they have filled their catching needs, and there are no minor league Reds catchers ready as top prospects in 2025. Don't be surprised if Reds try to find more help at catcher, it is a very weak area going into 2025.
