Known more for his defense behind the plate and his work with his pitching staff, Jose Trevino has also provided a surprising boost on offense.
When the Yankees traded for catcher Jose Trevino on the last weekend of spring training, new teammate Luis Severino thought they had acquired Athletics reliever Lou Trivino.
“Once we got him, I knew he was going to thrive here because he’s that type of player,” said shortstop Isiah Kiner-Falefa, who was teammates with Trevino on the Rangers. “He’s built for the big stage. He’s a grinder. He’s a guy that whenever the lights shine brighter, that’s when he shows up. In Texas, it was tough sometimes, the situation he was in. It’s awesome that he’s in the situation he’s in now on the best team in baseball.” .
“I feel like offensively — he doesn’t need to worry about offense. I think that’s why he’s thriving,” Kiner-Falefa said. “In Texas, for me and him both, they wanted more out of us offensively. Just knowing that in the back of your head, sometimes you try too hard. … It says a lot about who he is and the kind of player he is. He’s taking all of his effort on defense and he’s thriving on offense as well, which is what we needed as a team.
“He certainly has earned being in there,” manager Aaron Boone said. “But love what we have going on with both guys. Obviously want to get Higgy going a little bit at the plate, but Jose’s certainly earning more and more opportunities.”
