Kind of thought they would sign him since they need a backup and he has played there before. He come n handy or might not play at all. Not a bad pickup though.Marlins signed catcher Paul Lo Duca to a minor league contract and assigned him to Triple-A Albuquerque.
Let go by the Nationals after hitting .230/.301/.281 while making $5 million, Lo Duca returns to the organization he played for in 2004 and 2005. John Baker is currently the Marlins' starter, with Matt Treanor backing him up, but Lo Duca could get a look before rosters expand next month.
