Could be the same type of thing I heard last year that Sully thought he had an infielder coming in so Carrion left but then the infielder was convinced to go pro.
Either way you have: Lastres- can’t throw Alvarez MUST have portal catcher. I’m sure all would agree here. Even starting season with just two catchers that can throw is a major gamble. Maybe Heyman comes in but until we know that for sure I say we have to add a portal guy and maybe a juco guy.
