Gabriel Moreno Launches First Spring Homer
9 months agoArizona Diamondbacks catcher Gabriel Moreno went 2-for-3 with a double, home run, and an additional run scored in Sunday's 10-4 spring loss to the Milwaukee Brewers. Moreno launched a 400-foot shot off Freddy Peralta in the third inning for his first spring homer. The 24-year-old is off to a solid start this spring, hitting .300 with a home run and three RBI over four games. He is coming off a fantastic postseason, where he smashed four home runs in 70 plate appearances. Moreno slashed .284/.339/.408 with seven home runs, 50 RBI, 33 runs, and six stolen bases over 111 games in 2023. He is the 11th catcher going off the draft board with a current NFBC ADP of 149. Moreno should contribute enough in each category to become a viable fantasy option in leagues that require just one catcher.
