Yesterday, the news came out that the Red Sox had signed minor league catcher, Gustavo Molina (right). He is not related to the three Molina catchers, who are brothers, which is too bad. I don't know about his fielding, but from the stats I've seen, he's a pretty awful hitter as in his two short MLB seasons in 2007 and 2008 he hit .111 and .143. The catcher has experience at third and first base as well. He is a career .235 hitter in the minor leagues, and a career .118 hitter in the major leagues. They have given him a spring training invite, but I sincerely doubt that he will play unless Jason Varitek and/or Victor Martinez get themselves landed on the DL. Go Sox, all the way!!!!!Saturday, January 30, 2010

Thanks for keeping us updated on the Red Sox off-season moves. They have been busy putting together a powerful line-up for 2010. Can't wait for the season to open!
