Gabriel Moreno Emerging As Viable Starting Option at Catcher Position
Arizona Diamondbacks catcher Gabriel Moreno has dealt with injuries again in 2026, but he remains a high-upside option at a thin position when healthy. The 26-year-old is hitting .260 with three home runs, 19 RBI, and three stolen bases in 123 at-bats. After returning from a stint on the injured list in early May, Moreno has gone on to hold a .253/.326/.398 line with three doubles, three home runs, and three stolen bases. When he's been on the field, Moreno has shown the ability to hit for average and get on base at a solid clip. While he has typically been placed at the bottom of the batting order, the backstop has recently begun to move up to the cleanup spot against right-handed pitching, which has bolstered his scoring opportunities. He's still widely available in most leagues, sitting at just 40% rostered on Yahoo. For managers looking for catcher help with some long-term appeal, Moreno is worth picking up.
