Another Twins Catcher Down

As the story says, after Redmond is Morales, with 4 career ML ABs. His minor league numbers look to peg him at around the same as Redmond offensively, I think. Some shifting in obp/slg to maintain his OPS on a repeat of AAA but a constant, and possibly out of whack high BA. Its higher then his younger years, which might mean an obp drop is expected; or he learned to watch more balls go by as his walks were up and SO's down.

Looks like he split time with Ryan Jorgensen in AAA in a possible platoon, although Morales is a switch hitter.

I have no insight on the defensive side. Any notes?
