I love it. No risk at all, has the potential to be our best catcher if he's healthy.

 

If we're not going to pay up to acquire a "real" catcher, throwing a bunch of somewhat intriguing crap at the wall is the next best option. Between Flowers, Soto, Kottaras, and Brantly, we've got a better chance of finding a decent season of performance.

I don't understand why they'd go after him, but a Minor League deal is very low risk. It's worth a shot.

Likely due to Soto being a right handed veteran bat that can take over if Flowers misses time or regresses.

 

I like the signing.

Signing reclamation projects not being counted on to contribute is fine. The past couple seasons, it seemed the Sox were counting on some of these guys to be pretty good.

the past couple of seasons, i am surprise the sox didn't use some of the vendors

to see if they couldn't man a position or pitch.
