Looking for a backup catcher

Looking for a back up catcher. Needs to be a righty bat, decent health and a good arm are important as well.

I put three on the trade block. Don't be fussy...good catchers are more rare than Cy Young SP's ;)

With two trades in a matter of hours, the Gothams have improved their catching depth significantly, re-acquiring Lou Price from Pittsburgh for a fourth and fifth rounder in 1994, and a third rounder in 1995. He was assigned to AAA.

They then traded outfielder Jake Howard to Boston for former Gotham catcher Ed Nelson. Nelson, who was an all-star in 1987 will assume the backup duties.

Nate Walker, the backup coming into the season, was designated for assignment.

"We significantly improved our catching situation," said Juan Lundstedt, the Gothams manager and a member of the TRL HOF. "I value catching, you can never have enough.

"We are blessed to have a great young catcher in Eddie Federoff, and now we have good depth throughout the system."
