The Boston Red Sox face uncertainty at the catcher position as they head into the 2025 MLB season following the trade of top prospect Kyle Teel. With Reese McGuire's exit, the team brought in backups Carlos Narvaez and Blake Sabol, but they lack the ability to challenge Connor Wong, who is the starting catcher after a strong offensive year in 2024. Wong's defensive shortcomings, particularly in pitch framing and blocking, raise concerns about his long-term viability as a starter. The Red Sox may still seek to improve the position before the season begins.
