8/04/25 | Yankees Catcher In Danger of Losing Job. There's plenty of blame to go around for the New York Yankees' free fall over the past two months, but the struggles of the club's starting catcher have seemingly flown a bit under the radar. Austin Wells came into the season with some rather high expectations placed upon him following a fruitful rookie campaign in 2024, during which he appeared in 115 games. Over that stretch, the left-handed hitter slashed .229/.322/.395 with 13 home runs, 55 RBIs and a 106 wRC+ while posting 12 Framing Runs, per Baseball Savant, which ranked in the 96th percentile. While Wells never found his footing amidst the Yankees' run to the World Series last fall, batting .120/.200/.260 in the playoffs, he finished third in AL Rookie of the Year voting and looked to be blossoming into a potential star behind the plate.
