On the 40-man roster, there is Rene Pinto and only Rene Pinto as the team’s sole catcher on the roster, which means the Rays are likely in the market for a catcher at the Winter Meetings.

    Two balls, one strike. Poise under pressure and the ability to quickly diagnose a play are hallmarks of a great MLB catcher.
