Reaches deal with Miami
Casali signed a minor-league deal with the Marlins on Tuesday, which includes an invitation to spring training, Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Casali was the backup catcher in Cincinnati for portions of 2023, though he earned only 96 plate appearances and posted a very poor .490 OPS. On the other hand, he lands in a good spot from an opportunity perspective, as Miami has only Nick Fortes and Christian Bethancourt as options behind the dish.

Stat Review
How does Curt Casali compare to other hitters?
This section compares his stats with all batting seasons from the previous three seasons (minimum 400 plate appearances)*. The bar represents the player's percentile rank. For example, if the bar is halfway across, then the player falls into the 50th percentile for that stat and it would be considered average.
* Exit Velocity and Barrels/PA % are benchmarked against 2019 data (min 400 PA) and Hard Hit Rate is benchmarked against last season's data (min 400 PA). See here for more exit velocity/barrels stats plus an explanation of current limitations with that data set.

Casali is the textbook definition of a backup catcher. He's appeared in the big leagues for nine consecutive years but has never received more than 256 plate appearances in a given season. He came to the plate 176 times for the Giants and Mariners last season and hit .203/.318/.331, good for a passable 92 wRC+, an exact match for his career mark. Being within striking distance of league-average at the plate while playing half your games at Great American Ball Park gives Casali a path to at least temporary fantasy value should Tyler Stephenson (who was limited to 50 games last season) get injured. Casali has had success in Cincinnati before, hitting .260/.345/.440 across 485 plate appearances from 2018 through 2020, so there's reason to be optimistic. Of course, he's also now 34 years old, so a step back is more likely than a return to his peak numbers.
