MLB insider Mark Feinsand has identified Los Angeles Dodgers backup catcher Dalton Rushing as a possible trade piece this offseason. With Will Smith secured as the starting catcher through 2033, Rushing's long-term role remains uncertain despite his status as a top prospect. The Dodgers' depth at catcher could allow them to address needs in the outfield and bullpen.
The Seattle Mariners are nearing a Major League contract agreement with veteran catcher Andrew Knizner to serve as backup to Cal Raleigh in 2026. The deal, pending a physical, addresses the team's need for catching depth after trading prospect Harry Ford. Knizner brings seven seasons of MLB experience to the 40-man roster.
