Though he failed to claim the backup catching gig with the Rockies in spring training, McKenry unseated Jordan Pacheco for those duties by June and wound up seeing more starts than anticipated when No. 1 backstop Wilin Rosario battled injuries in the second half. Despite his low expectations, McKenry shockingly morphed into one of the team’s most effective hitters when he was in the lineup, slashing .315/.398/.512 over 192 plate appearances. McKenry’s .910 OPS was nearly 200 points above his career mark, illustrating what kind of aberrant results can come to fruition when quality on-base skills collide with a .381 BABIP. That latter figure allowed the 30-year-old’s bat to remain effective outside of Coors Field, but it would be unwise to bet on him enjoying that level of luck again in 2015. Moreover, if Rosario manages to stay a bit healthier, McKenry isn’t likely to pose much of a threat for stealing away at-bats, given that he’s only a marginal upgrade defensively and is probably in line for a steep regression at the plate.
