Ive got it pretty well refined now.
Jaso and Olivo both have serious platoon issues, carrying both in addition to Montero lets you pinch hit for either.
None of the catchers are fast, Olivo and Jaso run well for catchers, but theyre catchers, it eould be handy if you could pinch run for them.
Olivo isnt as young as he used to be. He wore down for Wedge last year and he wore down for the Rockies the year before. You don't have to remove the catcher only in emergencies, there's extra inning games and even the 7th inning just because it keeps Olivo at a .725 OPS instead of a .550 OPS.
This still shakes out where Montero gets 40 starts, Olivo gets 100 or so and Jaso gets 20ish, but another 60 or 70 late game appearances. He still provides a lot of value in that role, including letting Seager get more PAs via pinch hit
