2026 review
Sebastián Rivero got into 24 games behind the plate for LAA before a hamate injury ended his season, hitting .245/.286/.283 with a 21.1 K% and a 5.3 BB% over 57 PA, adding 2 2B, 5 R and 8 RBI. His contract was selected Apr 26, and a left hamate fracture put him on the 10-day IL Jun 10; he took rehab assignments Jul 25, Jul 28 and Aug 21, but with no activation on record through Sep 27 off the 60-day IL he missed 109 regular-season days. Drafted at NFBC ADP rank 493, he finished 1283rd of 1472 in the TDK LABS 5x5 value rank and 73rd of 103 catchers. The TDK LABS card described him in early May as pure backup-catcher churn after the selection; by late Jul it had him on the injured list rehabbing the hamate fracture; by late Aug it still had no clear return timeline for him.
