Boomer: Yankees have big catching problem in Jose Trevino

The Orioles stole four bases against Jose Trevino and the Yankees on Wednesday night, just three nights after the Red Sox swiped a franchise record nine bags against the Bombers backstop, who has had one of the worst pop times in baseball this season.

Trevino shrugged off the throwing issue after the game, but Boomer isn’t minimizing the issue the Yanks currently have behind the plate.

“The Yankees have a catching problem,” Boomer said. “It is a defensive catching problem, it is an arm problem.

“The guy they traded to the Mets [Luis Torrens] is the guy they should have playing catcher for them…David Stearns stole him from the Yankees.”

Boomer wondered if the Red Sox found the “blueprint” to beat the Yanks after running wild on Trevino on Sunday, and that concern is only intensifying after Wednesday saw Gunnar Henderson steal a bag before scoring a crucial run in the seventh inning, before Trevino sailed a ball into the outfield as Cedric Mulling was swiping third, allowing Mullins to score what would be the game-winning run in the tenth.

“This is becoming a thing now. It’s a real thing,” Boomer said. “All of a sudden, Boston exposed this thing. Blueprint spot.”
