As we dive deeper into the 2025 Fantasy Baseball season, the catcher position is once again stirring up debates among fantasy enthusiasts. It’s often seen as a necessary evil—something we have to deal with but don’t always enjoy. This year, I’m trying a new approach: only drafting a catcher when they’re the best player available. But this raises some intriguing questions.
How do you determine which catchers are truly the best options? Is it purely based on their rankings, or do you consider their ADP in relation to other players? For instance, I’ve found myself gravitating towards players like William Contreras and Connor Wong, who seem to offer decent value at their respective ADPs. But are they really worth the investment, or are we just chasing the latest trends?
Let’s talk strategy. Are you leaning towards the top-tier catchers, or are you more inclined to wait and snag a potential sleeper later in the draft? With players like Ivan Herrera and Joey Bart showing promise, could they be the hidden gems that could turn your season around?
And what about the deeper leagues? If you find yourself in a situation where you need to fill a catcher spot late in the draft, do you take a chance on a high-upside prospect, or do you play it safe with a veteran who might not have much left in the tank?
I’m curious to hear your thoughts on this. What’s your catcher strategy this season? Are there any players you’re targeting or avoiding? Let’s get the conversation rolling and see if we can uncover some hidden gems together!
