Earlier tonight, MLB Now’s Top 10 Catchers Right Now countdown was announced, hosted by Brian Kenny with MLB Network analyst Alex Avila. The Diamondbacks had Gabriel Moreno ranked sixth on the list. That’s up one place from last year, and marks his third year in a row being ranked, having come tenth in 2024.

The complete ranking for MLB Now’s top-10 catchers is listed below:

Top 10 Catchers Right Now

  1. Cal Raleigh, Seattle Mariners

  2. William Contreras, Milwaukee Brewers

  3. Will Smith, Los Angeles Dodgers

  4. Drake Baldwin, Atlanta Braves

  5. Alejandro Kirk, Toronto Blue Jays

  6. Gabriel Moreno, Arizona Diamondbacks

  7. Yainer Diaz, Houston Astros

The 16th season of each Top 10 Right Now ranking considers player performance over multiple seasons, offensive and defensive metrics, both advanced Statcast data and traditional numbers, and expert analysis by the MLB Network research team.

The offseason rankings will continue tomorrow, February 3 as Kenny and Chris Young count down MLB Now’s Top 10 Right Fielders Right Now at 7 p.m. ET. I’m pretty sure I’ll be back with another entry then, because Corbin Carroll will certainly be listed high in that category.
