Red Sox sign catcher Gustavo Molina

The Red Sox have signed catcher Gustavo Molina to a minor league contract. Gustavo is in no way related to the other catching Molinas.

don't really think this means anything more than emergency backup

if Tek fails and Wagner gets hurt. Molina seems to have a pretty low ceiling of everything and doesn’t look majors ready

Yawn move

I’m guessing he would be 5th on the depth chart behind VMart, Tek, Wagner and Brown. I’d be shocked if he made it to Boston anytime during the season.

Yeah...

This is most likely to just have an extra catcher in camp for the early days of ST. Lots of pitchers need to throw and there are only so many catchers around…

HAHAHAH

You call this a counter move to the bombshell that is the Yankees signing Randy Winn?? You had better sign at least a third string catcher to try and keep up now.

Strikeouts are boring- Besides that, they're fascist. Throw some ground balls - it's more democratic.
