Astros director of player development Sam Niedorf said that catching prospect Jason Schiavone “should be knocking on the door at Daikin [Park] before we know it.”

The 2024 MLB Draft pick had a breakout season, becoming the first minor league catcher in 45 years to post a 30/30 season when he hit 32 homers and swiped 32 bases. He also slashed .252/.391/.531 in 123 games while climbing from High-A Asheville to Triple-A Sugar Land. While he may not supplant Yainer Diaz just yet, he could emerge as the backup catcher for 2027 and a potentially valuable bat on the roster.
