Even though we have a bunch of young guys in A ball down, I like a catcher in the comp A or 2nd round next year. Ethan Anderson is a switch hitting catcher/corner fielder that has been playing 1st because a guy named Teel.

His dad was a Navy Seal so he is probably fairly disciplined with a work ethic. Shows the athleticism to play all the corners(1st,3rd,RF and LF) plus he can hit.

I know way to early but looks like a high floor potentially high ceiling player if he can stick at catcher.

Kind of curious how all those catchers down in Brandenton and the complex league are going to get sorted. I only watched a handful of Marauders game, but when I did I only so Alonso playing 1b.

Alfonzo...

It will be interesting. I’d imagine he stays in Bradenton to start the year to be the primary catcher. Planchart goes to Greensboro. Will be interesting to see how the rest fills out

Hope they can keep Gutierrez. He has quietly produced behind Endy and Hank. He should be a solid backup as soon as next year.

I’ve re-thought his FA date. Gutierrez first signed with Atl in 2016, but that deal was voided due to the signing scandals. He signed with Phi in 2018. If you count from the Phi deal he has another year. If you count from the Atl deal, no. But if it’s the latter, he’d have been a FA LAST year, which he obviously wasn’t. So I’m guessing he has another year.

Gutierrez is definitely a free agent. He likely signed in 2016 for 2017, making that 7 seasons.
