How many options does the previous C have?

Did they send him to Memphis or outright Designate?

I don't think anyone said hooray but as UH said, that slash line is probably an upgrade sadly

I'm not certain but if we cut Kotteras we won't have to demote anyone so it won't be an issue

I'm surprised by this move. Dude is a clubhouse cancer. Most hated player in the league.

But he makes up for it by being a total prick.

I was close on average/OBP but way off on slugging as he is slugging .348


Actual slash line .254/.286/.348

Yea I've heard by things about him, wonder what he does that pisses everyone off so badly

But it is weird for being such a clubhouse cancer he played for the white Sox's for quite a while

As long as it's a one year deal and this clown is out of the clubhouse with all swiftness, I guess it could work. Must have been the best catcher available, but Jesus...

Sox smeared him on the way out. stuff about basically being a man apart from the team, not providing any kind of guidance to young pitchers, etc.

he's made a point of being a "fierce competitor" that "gets under the opponent's skin" his whole career, so you know what kind of personality you're getting.

maybe the cardinal organization felt the clubhouse has enough leadership that they really can keep him in check a bit? as a pirate fan, i certainly hope he spreads hate and discontent throughout.
