[Leighton] Catcher Max Stassi has agreed to a minor league deal with the San Francisco Giants. Stassi underwent hip surgery in June. Injuries and a personal matter limited him to just five rehab games the last two seasons. Posted 2.9 fWAR in 87 games in 2021.

1. A guy coming off hip surgery who hasn’t seen big league action in three years. Who needs Juan Soto?

2. Im just going to assume every catcher we bring on can catch with Posey with at the helm

   Edit: he’s a very good framer but no bat at all with a .190/.268/.327 career line against righties. If he’s healthy and hopefully past his personal issues, he’s a better Casali.

3. Meh. An Ok back up for Bailey since Murphy is injury prone.

4. I thought we got rid of Farhan?

5. A positive move provided they can dump Murphy. Still, he ain’t no Joey Bart. Thanks, Farhan.

6. Is John Fisher on the board for the Giants?

7. This dude was a legend in Little League.

8. We got our guy

9. this dude briefly looked like a franchise catcher for the angels. lots of upside
