The Red Sox have made their first move of the offseason and it is a head scratcher. The team has signed backup catcher David Ross to a 2-year $6.2 million contract. The Red Sox have Jarrod Saltalamacchia and Ryan Lavarnway as catchers so one of them will be going elsewhere via trade or in Lavarnway’s case, back to Pawtucket. Ross is a valuable addition behind the dish, especially as a defensive catcher. Now there may be some use for your Cody Ross jersey if he signs elsewhere although the number will likely be wrong.
