Injured 2026 UNLV catcher with promising pedigree
In the 2026 season, Drew Charney is a redshirt sophomore catcher for UNLV, but the Rebels say he will miss the season because of injury[1][2][3]. His value is more about profile than box-score pop right now: he brings a 5-foot-11, 200-pound right-handed catching body, transfer experience from Butler, and a reputation that once landed him among Minnesota’s top high-school catchers[2][5]. He’s a fit for a team willing to bet on recovery, defensive catching development, and untapped upside rather than immediate availability.
