News, Notes and Historical Information on the St. Louis Cardinals
[powered by WordPress.]
Catcher: Obviously Yadier Molina is the Cardinal’s starting catcher, but St. Louis let his backup, Gary Bennett, go and signed Jason LaRue to fill that role. This does not seem like it will be a significant move, unless Molina, one of the top defensive catchers in the game, misses any extended period of time. It is important to note, however, that Molina is nursing a knee injury this off-season, but is reporting good progress. He is coming into camp 15-20 pounds lighter than last season in the hopes of easing the stress on his knees and signed a four year contract extension with the club this off-season.
