Red Sox: Recent moves could open the door for Blake Swihart return

We’re fully entrenched into the offseason Red Sox Nation and Chaim Bloom is beginning to put his fingerprint on this team. Earlier in the week, we found out that he had traded backup catcher Sandy Leon to the Cleveland Indians, leaving Christian Vazquez as the only catcher on the roster. As the CBO prepares for the upcoming Winter Meetings, he’ll have the opportunity to sign a backup catcher on a bargain.

At the beginning of the 2019 season, third-string catcher Blake Swihart was sent to Arizona in order to end the great catcher debate in Boston.
