Lavarnway to be called up?

According to a report on www.mlbtraderumors.com The Red Sox are looking to move Catcher Kelly Shoppach, to make room for Catching prospect, Ryan Lavarnway.

 Red Sox Catcher Kelly Shoppach could end up with Mets.

Lavarnway is a Catcher we've talked about here, he could provide a spark for the Red Sox at Catcher, or as an occasional DH. Lavarnway had a cup of coffee in the Majors in 2011, after hitting 32 Home Runs between AA, and AAA that same year.

He has legitimate power, and is not terrible defensively.

Look for Lavarnway to make an immediate impact, upon being called up.

Meanwhile, Shoppach could provide the Mets, who are rumored to be interested in him, with the type of offense they have lacked at the Catching position.
