Caricote, 17, ranked as Baseball America's 17th-best prospect in their most-recent IFA rankings and didn't rank on MLB Pipeline's top 50 rankings. Per Baseball America , the catcher stands at 6'1", 185 lbs and looks to be a strong defensive catcher thanks to his athleticism. His arm is the worst of his attributes behind the plate, but he is a strong framer and good blocker.

Carlos Narvaez had a solid rookie season and emerged as Boston's top option behind the plate in 2025. However, the Red Sox have been linked to J.T. Realmuto's market, so there is some indication that the Sox aren't entirely set at the catching position. Along those same lines, MassLive.com's Sean McAdam reports that the club shown some interest in reuniting with ex-Boston prospect , though "nothing is close now" between the Red Sox and White Sox.
