Garver is hitting .272 with 15 home runs and a .897 OPS at Triple-A Rochester. He's also thrown out 30 percent of runners and is a candidate for a September call-up, the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.
Garver showed promise last season with a .753 OPS at Double-A, but wasn't considered a top prospect since he was already 25. He's improved his power, drawn more walks, and is said to have improved his defense at Triple-A. He should contend for the backup role with the Twins next season as a result and could surprise. The recent trade of John Ryan Murphy makes him the top catcher in Rochester.
