Be nice if Coomes turns out a bat and decent glove to possibly start on Sundays and Midweek.

Pap is a stupid good defensive catcher, but man that bat is demoralizing when he comes up to the plate. It's still a young season and there isn't alot to go off of but I don't remember him batting great in summer league either.

But defense on those friday/saturday pitching duels will be imperative and unless Coomes has a ridiculous glove and arm, I don't see him moving in unless its on sundays.

He did fine at the end of last year when he focused solely on RH. He went back to switch hitting over the summer and part of the fall. He is now going to stick with only RH. He'll be fine.

Under their player profiles its says Coomes was a gold glove catcher at Catholic High BR, and he shared catching duties at LSU Eunice. His high school coach described him as a very athletic catcher with a strong arm! Pap is an amazing catcher and he's fun to watch behind the plate! Hopefully Coomes can learn from Pap!
