Yanks acquire Molina

According to the New York Daily News, "In a move to bolster their bench, the Yankees acquired catcher Jose Molina from the Angels last night in exchange for minor league righthanded reliever Jeff Kennard." Good acquisition for the Bronx Bombers?

Re: Yanks acquire Molina

How bad would you have to be not to be an upgrade over Wil Nieves? Molina is an upgrade, but only defensively. neither one can hit their weight, but Nieves couldn't if he was only 150 pounds.

Re: Yanks acquire Molina

Jose Molina is alright but he's no hitter. If anything, he knows catching like it's his brother...since it basically is.

Re: Yanks acquire Molina

Molina is a very solid defensive catcher with a gun for an arm. This is a definite upgrade for the Yanks.

career batting average:

Will Nieves .161
Jose Molina .237
