John Mozeliak reached outside the organization for the first time as Cardinals general manager Monday.
The club signed free-agent catcher Jason LaRue as the backup to Yadier Molina and added depth by agreeing with starting pitchers Dewon Brazelton and John Wasdin on minor-league contracts.
LaRue assumes the roster spot held by Gary Bennett the past two seasons. Brazelton, a former first-round draft pick of the Tampa Bay Devil Rays, and Wasdin will bring major-league experience to the Memphis Redbirds rotation.
Well thank goodness...I was really starting to worry about that Memphis starting rotation.
I don't have any problem with the LaRue signing, actually. He might never recover offensively, but he can't be all that different from the dynamic tandem of Bennett & Stinnet.
