| 3/12/25 | Colorado Rockies two young catchers ready to prove themselves. The Colorado Rockies had never sent a catcher to the All-Star game until Elias Diaz in 2023 who ended up winning the game's MVP award. It was a great story, and Diaz was an underrated defender and phenomenal teammate during his time in Denver, but he was always streaky and was getting older. In the midst of a frustrating 2024 campaign, the Rox would even shop Diaz in trade conversations but his precipitous drop in production meant that nobody would even claim him off waivers once he was designated for assignment. Then, suddenly, with the entire rest of the offense struggling, there were days when not only would manager Bud Black have to use the DH to get two catchers into the lineup, some days they were hitting right in the middle of the order.
