One reason I wouldn't mind trading Patrick Bailey. His offensive fade after July 1, was terrible, and his September/October fade was literally one of the 20 worst in MLB history: as in worse than Casey Schmitt:

Add in the fact that his best skill is pitch framing, and MLB might go to all-electronic balls and strikes...and I wouldn't mind trading him.
Kapler ground Bailey into the dirt. He was gassed. It was obvious. To anyone but Kapler. Having said that, I don’t expect Bailey to be more than an average to slightly above average hitting catcher. He is, however, special defensively. Not just his pitch framing. But how he works with the staff. He also handles the running game well.
