Javy Back

The Braves signed former catcher Javy Lopez to a minor league contract with an invitation to spring training today. He was formerly released by Colorado during Spring Training 2007. He’ll try and earn a backup spot behind Brian McCann along with Brayan Pena, Corky Miller, and Clint Sammons.

If in fact Javy makes the team out of spring training, he’s expected to make around $1 million.

What are your thoughts on Javy signing with the club once again? Think he still has some baseball in him? Or are the Braves signing too many former Braves stars with hopes they can retread veterans who have played long past their prime?
