There's more than one way to skin a cat and for J.P. Ricciardi that means more than one way to obtain a right-handed bat. With trade talks all but dead in his search for another bat, preferably a power-hitting right-handed one, the Blue Jays general manager is giving the list of free agents another once over. One of the surprising names still left on the unsigned free agent list is 31-year-old Bengie Molina and that hasn't escaped Ricciardi's notice. "We're throwing his name around a little bit," Ricciardi said yesterday of the Jays interest in the the veteran right-handed hitting catcher. "If all fails with the outfielders we'll probably turn our attention to (obtaining) a catcher." Molina, who has played his entire career with the Los Angeles Angels, last season in 119 games (410 at-bats) hit .295 with 15 homers and 69 RBIs. A contact hitter, Molina struck out just 41 times. He's excellent defensively and would be the perfect compliment to the switch-hitting Gregg Zaun who was overused last year because the Jays didn't have a legitimate backup.
