Former Reds, Cubs Gold Glove Catcher Suddenly Retires After 12 Seasons
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Longtime Cincinnati Reds catcher Tucker Barnhart is retiring after 12 seasons in the big leagues, according to MLB insider Robert Murray. Barnhart was a two-time Gold Glove Award winner for the Cincinnati Reds. He also played for the Chicago Cubs, Detroit Tigers and Arizona Diamondbacks. He played eight games for the Texas Rangers this year. "At least two sources who have spent time around Barnhart throughout his career believe he would make a quality Major League manager, but it's unclear if the longtime catcher would entertain that possibilty," Murray wrote for FanSided.

PITTSBURGH, PA - APRIL 07: Tucker Barnhart #16 of the Cincinnati Reds can't field a throw by Jesse Winker #33 allowing Josh Bell #55 of the Pittsburgh Pirates to score during the first inning at PNC Park on April 7, 2018 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. MoreBarnhart was designated for assignment by the Rangers earlier this year and was later assigned to Triple-A Round Rock. In his 12-year career, he slashed .241/.318/351. He hit 53 career home runs and will be most remembered for his eight seasons with the Reds. He played 744 games with the Reds. He hit .248 as a member of the Reds in his career and collected 261 RBIs. Barnhart appeared just once in the postseason, in 2020, as a member of the Reds. While he never established himself as an elite hitter, to make it 12 years as a big leaguer is no easy feat. He caught 841 games in his career. He also had 18 appearances at first base, one appearance at third base and one appearance in the outfield. He finished his career with a 6.9 WAR and 920 total games played. The last three seasons, he had not produced much, so he knew it was time to hang up the cleats. More MLB: Padres Involved In 'Outrageous' Trade Idea For $75 Million Outfielder

Rangers catcher Jonah Heim leaves game versus Yankees with nerve injury in throwing hand
NEW YORK (AP) — Texas Rangers catcher Jonah Heim left Wednesday night's game against the Yankees in the second inning due to a right hand injury after making two errant warmup throws. The Rangers said Heim had a compressed nerve in his throwing hand. Heim singled in the top of the second, the Rangers' first hit on a chilly night at Yankee Stadium. He was forced out at second base for the final out on a grounder by Jake Burger. Designated hitter Kyle Higashioka warmed up Rangers starter Jacob deGrom while Heim seemed to take an unusually long time to emerge from the dugout in his gear. Heim took one pitch from deGrom and airmailed a throw into centerfield. He was visited by manager Bruce Bochy and a trainer before he motioned to deGrom to throw him the ball. Heim's return throw sailed over deGrom's head before the catcher exited. The 29-year-old Heim is batting .262 with six homers and 17 RBIs in 37 games this season. Tucker Barnhart, the Rangers' No. 3 catcher, took Heim's place in the lineup. ___ More AP baseball:
