Week 14 Waiver Wire: Catchers
It's Week 14 of the season and it's also the final full week before the All-Star Break. I think the All-Star catcher of the waiver wire would be J.T. Realmuto.

Week 13 Waiver Wire: Catchers
We're in Week 13 of the season. Yes, there are people out there who are superstitious and think that 13 is an unlucky number.
