The team is struggling too much to cobble together some minor league catchers. I'm sure we will overpay but Posada is out and totally unreliable for this year. Molina is no more than a backup. We have tons of young pitching we can trade an just need to pay the price for a good catcher. We should have signed Bengie when he was a free agent instead of Posada (but no one listened to me then either) Wang plus for Russel Martin? :) There is no question we make a trade.

Every team dropped the ball. Pena now plays for Omaha with JR House. House can hit and is a fair catcher. He's stuck behind Pena and the KC catchers. I would look at a guy like that. Thinking more along the lines of the trade for Molina only giving up Jeff Kennard. Agreed on Brayan Pena. Every team dropped the ball. Pena now plays for Omaha with JR House.

Seriously? he's a great kid but he might hit a bit but he threw out 2-of-20 AAA runners. Won't happen. Granted some of them were on the pitchers but still that's a lot. someone mentioned PJ.

Cashman didn't even take a look. Now he'd have to trade for someone. Brayn Pena was out there for the taking. Cashman didn’t even take a look. Now he’d have to trade for someone.
