Vazquez Good as Gone?

[Dave Borton]

What can you get for him? Who needs that backup catcher for a second half run?

Pereda picked up off waivers and Camargo DFA'd.

Jeffers wife is about to have a baby. They'll pull someone up (Gasper?) and need a catcher in AAA. I think that's all this is. But one can hope....

They didnt add a catcher at AAA. They swapped out Camargo for Pareda.

 

I guess it's possible they expect Camargo to clear waivers and sign back with St Paul, off the 40 man. 

That would add a catcher.

What's the argument here?  We should be happy our catcher is hitting like a 29 year old career minor leaguer who played for a minor league team dressed as a major league team and now is on our team thanks to a minor league deal?

You got me.....I would like better than that.  Guilty as charged.  Especially when one of those two makes 10M on a shoestring budget.
