Chad Wallach News
Catcher Chad Wallach was claimed off waivers from the Miami Marlins by the Los Angeles Dodgers. With Keibert Ruiz traded to the Nationals as part of the Max Scherzer-Trea Turner deal, the Dodgers were in need of some catching depth for their Triple-A club. Wallach was designated for assignment by the Marlins last week and is a career .207/.271/.303 hitter at the big league level. He'll slot in behind Will Smith and Austin Barnes on the Dodgers depth chart.
Miami Marlins catcher Chad Wallach will start behind the plate for the second consecutive postseason game Friday versus the Cubs and right-hander Yu Darvish. Wallach started just 13 games during the regular season, but seems to have supplanted Jorge Alfaro as the clubs everyday catcher at this stage. Wallach will have an extremely difficult matchup in Game 2 against Darvish, severely capping his DFS intrigue. Keep an eye on whom the Marlins will tab as their catcher for either Game 3 on Saturday or Game 1 of the NLDS next Tuesday to get an indication of the timeshare between Wallach and Alfaro.
Miami Marlins catcher Chad Wallach will be behind the dish to catch right-handed pitcher Sandy Alcantara for Game 1 of the wild-card series versus the Cubs. Wallach appeared in 15 games during the regular season and produced a .640 OPS, with manager Don Mattingly opting for his defensive abilities over those of Jorge Alfaro, whose bat ended 2020 on a significant slide. Wallach will be one of the lowest-priced bats among starting nines on the slate Wednesday, giving him punt play appeal for fantasy managers needing to save up for other players to roster. Alfaro will likely return behind the plate for Game 2 on Thursday.
