BUSTER POSEY
#28 - CATCHER - SAN FRANCISCO GIANTS
The Buster buzz is back: Posey's return to Giants energizes training camp It’s no surprise Buster Posey’s return, after he opted out of last season, has...
Looks fresh early in camp Posey entered camp in good health and went 1-for-1 with a walk in Sunday's spring opener, Andrew Baggarly of The Athletic reports.
Impact The 33-year-old opted out of the 2020 campaign to help raise newborn twins and should benefit from a year off from the grind behind the plate. Posey set career lows in both 2018 and 2019 by posting a .741 OPS and .688 OPS, respectively, with 12 combined homers. The veteran catcher is unlikely to return to the MVP-level form from his mid-20s, but he could still be a plus both offensively and defensively for the Giants in 2021 with a rebound campaign.

Locked in as Opening Day starter Posey is a lock to start behind the plate on Opening Day, Kerry Crowley of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
Impact Posey elected to sit out the 2020 season after he and his wife adopted a pair of newborn twins. He'll have to shake some rust off heading into his age-34 season, and expectations for him may be somewhat modest given that he produced a career-worst 85 wRC+ in 2019, but he clearly still has his manager Gabe Kapler's trust. 2018 second-overall pick Joey Bart did make his debut last season, but his .233/.288/.320 slash line in 33 games and his 3:41 BB:K suggest he's not quite ready to dethrone Posey just yet.

Unlikely to replace Posey Manager Gabe Kapler said Friday that Bart is unlikely to serve as the Giants' primary catcher to begin the 2020 season, Andrew Baggarly of The Athletic reports.
Impact Bart was unlikely to make the Opening Day roster heading into summer camp, but the Giants' catcher position opened up Friday after Buster Posey announced that he is opting out of the 2020 season. However, both Kapler and general manager Farhan Zaidi said that they feel as though Bart still has some development left and isn't a likely candidate to replace Posey. Tyler Heineman and Rob Brantly are the most likely to spend time as the team's starting catcher this year.
