The Intelligencer

ST. LOUIS — The Cardinals announced Tuesday that they have agreed to terms with catcher on a one-year contract for the 2022 season. Financial terms were not disclosed. “On behalf of the Cardinals and our fans, it gives me great pleasure to announce that Yadier Molina will continue his franchise legacy for another sea- son in 2022,” Cardinals Chairman Bill DeWitt Jr. said. “Yadi has continued to play at an All-Star level this season and has already established him- self among the greatest players to have ever worn the birds on the bat.” Molina, 39, a nine-time Rawlings winner, four-time Platinum Glove winner and 10-time All-Star, has played every game of his career (2004-21) in a Car- dinals uniform, totaling 2,119 games over 18 Major League seasons.
