JUPITER, Fla. — He caught red-handed.
With his left hand covered by a red Rawlings, Willson Contreras was behind the plate Monday for Jack Flaherty’s bullpen session. Contreras sported a red Cardinals helmet, a red Cardinals long-sleeve workout shirt, red shorts, a red chest protector, a red mask.
Contractually he already was a Cardinal, but seeing him wearing spring training red made it feel real. The blue Cub is now a Cardinal, resplendent in red, ready in red.
