I'd really like to see us sign Brian McCann. He's OPSing over .900 and plays great defense. Vazquez strikes me as more of a backup and I don't think Lavarnway's defense at catcher will every be major league caliber.

 

Goddamn i was about to make this exact same post.

Hey Dempster got farther than he should have and even got a few pitches below the belt line...not many though. One thing you have got to respect about him is that I have never seen him fall apart on the mound even when everything was going badly and he had nothing...much like tonight and his last few outings before tonight. Could you imagine how down in the mouth and defeated some of our other starters would be pitching as poorly as that? Jeez you would have to issue a suicide watch for a couple of them.

I could see McCann getting a deal similar to the 5 year/$75 million Yadier Molina got. I would prefer to sign him for less, but he could be used as a DH as he gets older.

Which could coincide with Ortiz eventually retiring. I just assume McCann would be a player lots of teams gun for so I'm not that confident than Boston can outbid them all.

Question is do we wanna wrap up that much money on a catcher when we have 3 guys who could conceivably be ready during those 5 years.
