Maldonado has been mired in a 4-for-39 slump this spring.

The veteran backstop is known for his defensive abilities, not his offensive prowess, so the lack of production shouldn't be a huge surprise here. Still, Maldonado is trying to carve out a role in the Angels' lineup out of camp. He and fellow catcher Carlos Perez have failed to stay above the Mendoza line this spring. This is one of the least interesting catcher battles from a fantasy perspective, and a timeshare behind the dish is a definite possibility.
