They're almost identical twins.

With most starting pitchers being righties, it's inevitable Barnhart gets most of the starts behind the plate. Remember Milt May when Lance Parrish was a rookie? Barnhart is only signed for this coming season, so we may be revisiting the catching situation next year at this time. Hopefully Rogers is back to 100% following Tommy John rehab, a big "if". Dingler waits in the wings.Bobbert wrote: ↑Fri Nov 05, 2021 11:08 amBarnhart probably will get most of the starts at catcher, to use his catching skills as much as possible, and keep Haase's bat in the lineup. After Cabrera gets his 3000th hit, the Tigers will probably start talking buyout, and that would open up opportunities for Haase at DH.
