Iván Herrera Stats

St. Louis Cardinals catcher Ivan Herrera has been recalled from Triple-A Memphis on Friday. Veteran catcher Yadier Molina (knee) was placed on the injured list, retroactive June 16. That being said, Herrera has been recalled to take over Molina's spot on the active roster. The expectation is that Herrera will catch a few times a week while Molina is sidelined. However, Andrew Knizner figures to do a majority of the catching in St. Louis. Neither of these players are expected to have much fantasy value.

St. Louis Cardinals catching prospect Ivan Herrera, the team's No. 4 prospect per MLB Pipeline, is expected to be on the team's taxi squad when rosters are officially announced. Herrera hit a combined .284/.374/.405 with nine home runs, 47 RBI and 48 runs scored in 87 games for Single-A Peoria and High-A Palm Beach in 2019. Because he hasn't even advance past Single-A and just turned 20 years old, it's unlikely that we see Herrera in the big leagues in the shortened 60-game 2020 season, but he's a backstop to certainly keep your eyes on in dynasty/keeper leagues. The 5-foot-11, 220-pounder is an advanced hitter for his age but will need to develop his catching skills to advance to the Show.
