Royals Receiving Interest In Catching Prospects
Briefly

The Royals are having a difficult season with a record of 46-50 and injuries affecting their top players. Despite this, rival executives are showing consistent interest in their catching prospects Blake Mitchell, Carter Jensen, and Ramon Ramirez. Mitchell, the eighth pick in the 2023 draft, has struggled with injuries. Jensen has been successful in Triple-A with a solid offensive showing. Ramirez, while currently injured, displayed promise in Single-A. Numerous teams seek improvements in their catching situations, which may create trade opportunities for the Royals before the deadline.
Blake Mitchell, a top-catching prospect, was the eighth-overall pick in the 2023 draft but has played only 14 games this year due to injuries.
Carter Jensen has split the season between Double- and Triple-A, showcasing power with six homers and four doubles in his first 13 games at Omaha.
Ramon Ramirez, a 20-year-old on the injured list, has shown promise, slashing .252/.366/.472 in 44 games at the Single-A level.
Several teams, including the Nationals, Padres, and Rays, are interested in upgrading their catching positions, creating trade opportunities for the Royals.
