6 years agoMilwaukee Brewers catcher Erik Kratz went 2-for-5 with a solo home run and a single in the 17-6 win over the New York Mets. Kratz was acquired on Friday in exchange for a PTBNL or cash with the purpose of backing up Manny Pina at catcher. Kratz was given the start today and delivered a solo home run, overall looking great at the plate in his debut with the Brewers. With Manny Pina being one of the league's best defensive catchers, Kratz most certainly won't get starting time anytime soon, however, this is encouraging for the organization. He should not be owned in any formats.--Caden Inaba
