2026 review

J.C. Escarra was a backup catcher with little offense to show for the playing time: he hit .188/.239/.271 with a 19.6 K% and a 6.5 BB% over 92 PA for NYY, with 16 H, 5 2B, 1 3B and 0 HR across 32 games. He shuttled between the majors and the minors on Jun 5, Jun 6, Jun 21, Jun 23 and Jun 26, with his last game coming Jun 20. Drafted at NFBC ADP rank 831, taken in 18 of 674 drafts as a rare pick rather than a regular draftee, he finished 1329th of 1472 in the TDK LABS 5x5 value rank and 79th of 103 catchers. The TDK LABS card had him as a quiet name in early May, then as Wells's backup with starts only when Wells rested, and by mid-Jun, once Wells was out, it described the opening as there but the bat as cold.
