Kevin Spear is a steady, local-catching option for Washington
In the 2026 season, Washington catcher Kevin Spear has been a depth-plus contributor: he appeared in eight games, made two starts behind the plate, and picked up his first Husky hit and run scored, plus two RBI. The Seattle native brings a right-handed, 6-foot, 190-pound frame and adds value with catcher flexibility and a team-first role rather than headline power. For a roster fit, he looks like a reliable, familiar, low-drama backstop who can handle innings and supply situational offense—more glue guy than star, which every good pitching staff appreciates.
