And... I venture to say that this kind of an injury to the throwing arm of a catcher that seems to fight every day to stay off the DL... is a deal breaker
Let's not react too soon. It's not definite as of now that he needs surgery. And if Plawecki can handle the starting job, it gives us a chance to see what Nido can do.
Does anyone think, if d'Arnaud does need surgery, if we can or should try to acquire C Tucker Barnhart from the Reds? Career .257/.329/.370 catcher, good against steals. Not sure what it would take to pry him from the Reds.

Simply amazin' - and tragic. I imagine Plawecki gets the heavy workload now.

Who can we pick off the Marlins roster?
J.T. Realmuto is hurt himself.
Tampa Bay?

I will be very surprised if Nido can hit MLB pitching. May I be pleasantly surprised.

Everybody loved young starters.
The Nats DFA'd Miguel Montero today. Worth looking into?
Isn't Jose Lobaton in Vegas? I am sure that he is veteran insurance, at least for the short term.
I like Bill's idea, too.
Yes, he's there, but not on the 40. If Travis goes to the 60-day, thatthat will clear a spot.
Ditto, or it may be time to put our centerfield gold glove into one of those western town goldrush scales to see what it pays out in a catcher.
I'd be fine with Lobaton as a backup. His veteran status will not guarantee the lions share of starts .
