EDGE Analysis

"Having not played a position for as long, especially that position, I'm very cautious about (playing him there)," Hinch said of Gattis' past experience playing catcher. Ideally, the 29-year-old could get reps at the position in games that are blowouts, but Hinch still hasn't used him behind the plate this season.
