4 years agoThe Philadelphia Phillies made free-agent catcher J.T. Realmuto a five-year offer worth slightly north of $100 million on Friday. The figure is well below Realmuto's asking price at the end of last spring training -- he was hoping to get $200 million -- and is possibly below the record average annual value for a backstop. Joe Mauer has the record for catchers at $23 million per season from 2011-18. Realmuto's market has been slow after the Mets signed James McCann at catcher earlier in the offseason. And the Yankees re-signing DJ LeMahieu likely takes them out of the running for Realmuto. Unless another team (maybe the Blue Jays?) becomes serious about the All-Star catcher, the Phillies have a good shot at re-signing him at a decent price. Wherever Realmuto is playing in 2021 and beyond, he will be the top fantasy catcher off the board in drafts.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
