Cardinals Re-sign Molina
Once again, it’s good to be a Molina. Last winter, Bengie cashed in with the Giants. This time, Yadier has hit the jackpot, re-signing with the St. Louis Cardinals for 4 years, $15.5 million.
Molina and the Cardinals had been scheduled for arbitration, with Molina asking for $2.75 million and the club offering $1.85. Molina earned $525,000 in 2007, so even if he’d lost arbitration, he would’ve won big time.
Molina batted .275/.340/.368 last year and owns a career line of .248/.304/.349 over three seasons and change. He’s 25 years old and he comes with a stellar defensive reputation, but that’s a lot of cash for a guy who hits like Royce Clayton. Oh well, good for him…
