Freddy Peralta Praises Francisco Álvarez’s Winning Mindset Behind the Plate

Peralta praised Álvarez’s mentality after working in camp. “He showed me that he wants to win. He cares about performance. That’s No. 1 for a catcher,” Peralta said. “I think that’s very important for him, for us, for the whole team.” Peralta said Álvarez communicates well, improves pitchers’ confidence and consistently helps calm the staff during high-pressure innings, too.
