The St. Louis Cardinals brought in a veteran catcher on a minor-league deal and that does nothing to impact Yadier Molina’s status.

The St. Louis Cardinals are in agreement with free-agent catcher Tyler Heineman on a minor-league deal that includes an invitation to Spring Training, the team announced.

Heineman, 29, is not the Cardinals’ replacement for Yadier Molina.
