Re: Navarro

If NL teams went with 11 man pitching staffs and 6 man position benches, Navarro would stay. He'd be a third catcher who pinch hits frequently. Kind of like Javier Valentin. This would help the Reds since he switch hits, a rarity for this ballclub.

Unfortunately, with 12 pitchers and a 5 man bench, you really can't afford three catchers unless one plays other positions. So Navarro will almost definitely be gone.

I doubt he will want to stay in AAA for most of the year next season, he'll get a major league job, which he will accept.

Hanigan is going nowhere. Mes is going nowhere. So Navarro will go somewhere else.
