The Boston Red Sox have spent this winter sifting through the bargain bin to fill holes on their roster with the latest find addressing their vacancy for the backup catcher role.
According to Robert Murray, the Red Sox are in agreement with free-agent catcher Kevin Plawecki. It’s expected to be a major league deal worth $900,000, per Bob Nightengale of USA Today.
The 28-year old spent the first four years of his career with the New York Mets before spending last season with the Cleveland Indians. He was non-tendered by Cleveland when they found him to be expendable following their trade for… Sandy Leon.
