Garrett Stubbs

Garrett Stubbs is the kind of player I quietly root for. A catcher out of Del Mar, California, he won the Johnny Bench Award at USC in 2015 as the best collegiate catcher, then carved out a Major League career with the Houston Astros and Philadelphia Phillies. Catchers like him rarely top highlight reels, but I've always thought the position is where a team's character lives. He's the steady, knowledgeable presence behind the plate rather than the marquee slugger. There's something admirable about building a big-league life on craft and clubhouse value, and I suspect his teammates value him far more than the stat sheet shows.
