It appears that Yadier Molina will get a chance to finish his career with the only team that he's ever known.
Katie Woo of The Athletic reports that the St. Louis Cardinals and Molina have reached a one-year/$10 million pact for the 2022 season. Audacy Sports MLB Insider Jon Heyman confirmed the report.
Molina is slashing .259/.304/.376 in 94 games for the Cardinals this season, having homered eight times and driven in 51 runs. The 39-year-old is playing on a one-year/$9 million deal that he signed after reaching free agency for the first time last winter.
Having made his major league debut in June of 2004, Molina is currently the longest-tenured player with any club in baseball. Molina made his 10th All-Star team in 2021, and the nine-time Gold Glove Award winner remains an above-average defender, as he has five defensive runs saved this season.
