Summary
Tyler Stephenson is heating up with power and production, making him a rare gem at catcher — but the Reds face a tough deadline decision. If they want to lock him in long-term, keep him. If not, trading him could net a solid return in a thin market for offensive catchers. Their top prospect, Alfredo Duno, is still developing and not ready to step in, leaving Jose Trevino as a backup. With Stephenson a free agent after this season, letting him walk would be costly — the Reds must act now to either extend or trade before the deadline.
