Let’s go great fit. Big RH bat, maybe less Reese, easy W
Edit: oh wow he’s been bad at the plate this year actually but still I like it

Do not hate the idea of having a real catcher for back up. Reese just cannot hit, it’s bad. But if this is the RH hitter acquisition, that will be rough

Pretty good player but a pending free agent. Shouldn't be that expensive. I guess Reese is done

Jansen is also one of the top blockers in the league, and Wong is one of the worst. Very interesting

Bench of Jansen, Romy, Rob, and Grissom if he’s ever healthy?

Could mean that Wong gets time at other positions, 1st base in particular.
Jansen catching against LHP with Wong at 1b and Wong catching against RHP, not so bad. Jansen has a 101 wRC+ (.373 obp) against LHP this year, but has reverse splits for his career.

Honestly Danny Jansen is probably better than Connor Wong

Jansen has a worst OPS over his last 30 games than Reese has over his last 30. This better cost nothing

If the return is similar to Paxton then I’m ok. Otherwise i don’t get it

Jansen has reverse splits on his career. Not a lefty masher but probably just a catcher upgrade. Definitely a defensive upgrade. But the fact that he has reverse splits does make him fit into Reece’s roster spot more cleanly.
The only weird thing is Wong also has reverse splits for his career. This year they both have normal splits, but Wong’s are more dramatic, so maybe they think there’s a real change there for Wong but Jansen will regress towards his mean.

Marginal upgrades are upgrades too!!
I can see why people would be underwhelmed if this was the end of their activity, but we still have plenty of time for larger moves, so I will celebrate anything that makes the team better assuming the return is reasonable (Ryan Zeferjahn type?)

A RH bat and good C insurance. And gets Dom off tge field vs LH and westbrook off the field in general. Big move. I like it

I will hazard a guess that we give up Valdez

“At least he gets to leave that third world country with fake money” — And fake fans.
Can he play first?
And, Reese will be DFAed or traded by tomorrow, yes? Will make for an awkward dugout tonight, for sure.

I will hazard a guess that we give up Valdez Valdez for a rental back-up catcher? Yikes
