Torrens is 29, and has shown impressive abilities to gun down runners and swing a clutch bat.
His counterpart has potential and trade value while still young and hopeful.
Keeping the 29 year old Torrens and calling up a backup catcher makes perfect sense, the return for Alvarez could potentially be so significant that it solidifies any position on the field.

I agree with you that Torrens should be the starting catcher but I wouldn’t trade Alvarez now. His value is at present greatly diminished because of his performance this year.
