1 hour ago1 hr Catcher Andrew Knizer exercised his out clause in his Red Sox deal and is a free agent. Hit .316/.426/.920 at Triple A Worchester.
1 hour ago1 hr How’s his defense?I sure hope the Sox are willing to give others a try behind the dish but I also have a feeling that they will now simply roll out our “trusty duo” of Romo / Quero.
1 hour ago1 hr Just get him. Can't be any worse than what they've had, and neither Romo nor Quero earned any deference.
1 hour ago1 hr Was wondering the same thing. His minor league numbers look really good but it seems like he never had success hitting at the major league level.
58 minutes ago58 min Sure. Why not? We currently are playing a catcher who’s soon to set “The Romo Line”
44 minutes ago44 min Sox have leverage on waiver claims due to their 2025 record correct? I would assume they are ahead of most teams. I know about the new waiver rules, all claims are irrevocable now
43 minutes ago43 min If the Red Sox thought he was any good, he'd probably be rostered over Jake Rogers one might think.

I know about the new waiver rules, all claims are irrevocable nowNo I don’t think 2025 record applies anymore. Also doesn’t really matter here if he’s a free agent.

He's as bad at hitting as Romo with none of the defense/pitch calling. Knizer's numbers are nice, but he couldn't find MLB work with the Rockies or Red Sox. Their backup catchers are as bad or worse than ours. Knizer was in Boston's system before the Adley/Rogers acquisition, he might've gotten the call over Narváez at some point.Worth a shot? I dunno. Probably a reason he's not getting the call though. Edited 13 minutes ago13 min by nrockway
