Yes that is his best hope to have a serviceable OPS along with sticking at catcher of course.

He mentions Dalton Varsho as a comp. Varsho put up 3.9 WAR with a .674 OPS.

I like Felnin about as much as you do, but on Walter we will have to agree to disagree. I probably have about 10 dudes over him.
I may have to do a top 20.

I am admittedly biased for Walter because I have interacted with him on X but he was a second round pick. Looking forward to seeing how he does in Modesto.

Mariners prospects are pretty exciting right now. In 25+ years of following and observing this system, I've never seen the organization with anything like the collecion of young hitters that we have right now. It's actually very very impressive.
