The New York Yankees still don’t have a firm plan behind the plate six days before Opening Day.

Right present, Kyle Higashioka and the freshly acquired Ben Rortvedt are the front-runners for the starting role.

However, Rortvedt is rehabilitating from a right oblique injury, putting his Opening Day status in jeopardy.

Sandy Leon is a new name to consider if general manager Brian Cashman is so inclined.

“After Cleveland notified catcher Sandy León that he would not make the team, he chose to opt out.”

León’s opt-out is surprising, not because he refused a Triple-A assignment, but because he did not break camp with the major league club. To begin the season, the 33-year-old appeared to be the frontrunner to replace Austin Hedges as the #2 catcher. Due to a strained left hamstring, Luke Maile is scheduled to start the season on the injured list.

So, who exactly is Leon? I’m glad you inquired. Last season, the 10-year MLB veteran hit.183 in 83 games with the Miami Marlins. Yes, it’s a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Although the 212 hitter isn’t very dangerous at the plate, he is routinely praised for his performance behind the plate. His career highlight occurred in 2018, when he played catcher alongside Christian Vazquez and helped the Boston Red Sox win the World Series.

Rob Brantly is expected to make the Opening Day roster as Higashioka’s backup if Cashman decides to stick with what he knows and Rortvedt isn’t ready on Thursday.
