Further voting in our latest
FenwayNation Poll indicates that
Blake Swihart has a
slight edge over
Christian Vazquez in reader preferences—although it's still close. As the chart shows, 45% now choose Swihart as the catcher the Sox should hang on to, while 41% take that view for Vazquez—essentially a flip from our last reading. About the same number as last time (14%) opt for keeping
Sandy Leon over the other two catchers. Interestingly, a poll on
MLBTradeRumors.com (with a
much bigger sample size) shows
somewhat similar results: Swihart 49.9%, Vazquez 34.5%, Leon 15.6%. You can still vote in the poll
