La rue Signs
Extension with Reds
CINNCINATTI,
OH:
Jason LaRue, former NTCC standout, is becoming a Cincinnati fixture behind
the plate. The Red's starting catcher the last five seasons agreed to a
two year, $9.1 million contract, according to an Associated Press Report.
The Houston, TX native's contributions go beyond what he does at the
plate. Over the last couple of seasons, he has taken on more of a
leadership role in the clubhouse, and that burden figures to grow heavier
in 2006. Now that Sean Casey has been traded, LaRue has the longest
tenure in Cincinnati of anyone on the current roster.
