The Texas Rangers have seemingly decided which of their 3 catchers to move, sending catcher Gerald Laird to the Detroit Tigers in exchange for pitching prospect Guillermo Moscoso as well as a second prospect.
Laird is a top defensive catcher, but is fairly mediocre with the bat. He boasts a .256 career batting average and will give you a few dingers here and there. Gerald made $1.6M in his first year of arbitration, and is now under Detroit's control for another 2 seasons.
