In 2025, catcher Carlos Narvaez has become an unexpected MVP for the Boston Red Sox, overshadowing even their headline acquisition, Garrett Crochet. After a mid-season trade from the New York Yankees, Narvaez quickly became the team's starting catcher, excelling in defensive metrics and demonstrating impressive offensive skills with a .282 batting average and .859 OPS. His performance has drawn praise from former teammates, including Aaron Judge, who noted Narvaez's hard work and dedication led to his current success.
Narvaez is one of the game's premier defensive backstops, ranking near the top of the league in framing, blocks above average, caught stealings above average, and pop time.
I was sad to see him go, but excited for the opportunity he's getting right now. He's really doing his thing over there, swinging it well.
