| 3/12/25 | Colorado Rockies two young catchers ready to prove themselves. The Colorado Rockies had never sent a catcher to the All-Star game until Elias Diaz in 2023 who ended up winning the game's MVP award. It was a great story, and Diaz was an underrated defender and phenomenal teammate during his time in Denver, but he was always streaky and was getting older. In the midst of a frustrating 2024 campaign, the Rox would even shop Diaz in trade conversations but his precipitous drop in production meant that nobody would even claim him off waivers once he was designated for assignment. Then, suddenly, with the entire rest of the offense struggling, there were days when not only would manager Bud Black have to use the DH to get two catchers into the lineup, some days they were hitting right in the middle of the order.

| 8/21/24 | San Francisco Giants Reportedly Interested in Past All-Star Game MVP. When the San Francisco Giants didn't become sellers at the trade deadline, it was clear the organization was pushing all their chips into the center of the table with the aim of getting into the playoffs. There's still time for the Giants to put together a streak, but that has been what everyone surrounding this team has been waiting for throughout the entire season. As they continue to search for ways to string together wins, they could be interested in adding catcher Elias Diaz per Susan Slasser of The San Francisco Chronicle. "For just the major-league minimum, San Francisco could add Diaz, 33, in time to be eligible for any playoff roster, and the timing means they could hang onto backup Curt Casali, too: rosters expand Sept. 1 and the Giants are thin in upper-level catching depth," she writes.
