Padres Trade for Backup Catcher
By Ernie Padaon
The San Diego Padres acquired their backup catcher today by trading for Seattle Mariners C Rob Johnson for a PTBNL or cash considerations.
Johnson will be the backup catcher behind Nick Hundley. Johnson is a career .200 hitter with 5 HRs and 42 RBI.

The Padres have now filled the backup catcher role and are still looking for that starting 1B option.
Here are his career MLB numbers:
Here our his minor league numbers:
