Seattle had claimed Nottingham off waivers from Milwaukee last week but then designated him for assignment. Though Nottingham did help in some clutch moments, especially being behind the plate when Corbin Burnes was on the mound I think the Brewers would be a rocket power team in 2021 if they had Nottingham on the roster.MILWAUKEE (AP) – The Milwaukee Brewers have boosted their depleted catching situation by reacquiring Jacob Nottingham from the Seattle Mariners. With Omar Narvaez still on the roster as well, it’s very unlikely for the Brewers to have two right-handers and a lefty on their list. It’ll be interesting to see what the Brewers do with Manny Pina as he enters his final year of arbitration. Going into 2021, I believe that Nottingham has really solidified his place on the 40-man roster. He does have a high strikeout percentage (33%) which does tear down the offensive performance a little bit but when you look at his minor league stats, it’s pretty much equal to his time in the big leagues. He’s making solid contact with the ball and has a 19 percent barrel percentage on his season. Offensively, the man has done some damage at the plate. He’s got a strong throwing arm with a caught stealing percentage of 29, which might not look too impressive compared to other catchers in the league, but Nottingham hasn’t had nearly as much playing time as veteran catchers. Pitchers seemed to look more comfortable on the mound if Jacob Nottingham was the one helping catch the calls. The 25-year-old ranks within the 91st percentile when it comes to pitch framing.

It was lackluster, to put it into nicest terms but overtime, Nottingham has proved to be a tremendous force on the roster. Nottingham had his spurts with major league time, but for the majority of his career with the crew, he’s spent it in the minor leagues.
