Yan Gomes, Kurt Suzuki to Split Time
5 years agoAlthough Washington Nationals catcher Yan Gomes will be the team's primary option again this season, fellow catcher Kurt Suzuki will get a large chunk of the playing time. Suzuki is looking to catch starters Max Scherzer and Anibal Sanchez, with Gomes catching the rest of the staff. Suzuki has been the superior hitter for years now, and catching about 40% of the time to Gomes' 60% is close enough that Suzuki is the better option of the two for fantasy purposes. While Suzuki belongs on a roster in two-catcher leagues and could be a streamer in daily one-catcher leagues, Gomes doesn't offer nearly that upside.
