Scouting Report: Tyler Heineman

Toronto Blue Jays | C

Overall

day-to-day

Summary

Tyler Heineman's roster position with the Toronto Blue Jays is in jeopardy as All-Star catcher Alejandro Kirk nears return from a broken thumb. Heineman has struggled significantly both offensively and defensively during his time filling in for Kirk. His recent performance includes striking out on the first pitch with bases loaded, and he was pulled from a game by manager John Schneider. Rookie Brandon Valenzuela has provided better offensive production (.259 OBP, .639 OPS with 3 HR in limited at-bats), further threatening Heineman's roster spot. With Kirk's imminent return, Heineman faces potential waiver assignment or designation for assignment despite being out of options.

Strengths

  • Veteran catcher with experience
  • Backup role available if Kirk returns healthy
