Tyler Stephenson Expecting to Bounce Back This Season
Reds catcher Tyler Stephenson has high hopes and expectations for himself this season.
"I personally think I can be one of the best catchers in baseball," Stephenson said last week.
The 27-year-old posted a .243 batting average in 465 at-bats last season, finishing with 13 home runs and 56 RBI. He only appeared in 50 games in 2022 due to a fractured thumb, a concussion and a fractured collarbone.
The Reds have moved him around in the past, but their goal is simple: to maximize his value as a catcher.
It's reasonable to expect him to spend the majority of his time behind the plate. Hopefully he can stay healthy and perform at a high level this season after two disappointing seasons.
