How Paul Skenes' emergence has saved Yasmani Grandal's roster spot
The Pittsburgh Pirates signed veteran backstop Yasmani Grandal to a one-year deal this offseason. However, he’s been horrific, both at the plate and behind it. As a hitter, Grandal is batting .182/.210/.303 with a .223 wOBA and 39 wRC+. Grandal has a poor .121 isolated slugging percentage and has walked in less than 5% of his plate appearances with a BB% of just 3.6%. Defensively, the only thing he’s done well is framing. He has allowed three passed balls, has dropped multiple third strikes, has the second worst poptime, and the seventh worst average throw speed for a catcher.
