Carlos Luis Narváez (born November 26, 1998) is a Venezuelan professional baseball catcher for the New York Yankees of Major League Baseball (MLB). He made his MLB debut in 2024.

Career

Narváez signed with the New York Yankees as an international free agent in July 2015.[1]

On November 6, 2023, the Yankees added Narváez to their 40-man roster to protect him from the Rule 5 draft.[2] He was optioned to the Triple–A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders to begin the 2024 season.[3]

On April 29, 2024, the Yankees promoted Narváez to the major leagues for the first time.[4] However, he did not make an appearance before being sent down to Triple–A on May 2, becoming a phantom ballplayer.[5] Narvaez was promoted again on July 13, after Jose Trevino suffered an injury.[6] He made his major league debut on July 20, recording his first MLB hit.[7]
