A "person in the industry" tells Jon Paul Morosi of FOX Sports that once Bengie Molina signs with a club, the rest of catchers on the open market are going to be scooped up quickly.
While the Mets are known to be pursuing Molina, the two sides are not close, according to one source. As a result, free agent catchers Rod Barajas, Jose Molina, and Yorvit Torrealba are still waiting by the phone. Torrealba is drawing interest from the Mariners, Rockies, Rangers, Mets, and Giants.
Reportedly, Molina is seeking a three-year deal worth roughly $20MM. Do you think he will continue to hold out for that type of money, or will he ease up on his demands and sign with a team relatively soon?
