The first signing of the 2004 offseason was the re-signing of Doug Mirabelli, Mr. Chicken Parm himself. He was coming off of a 2004 seasons that ranked in the annals of great backup catchers - a 281/368/525 season in 182 PAs. He hit so well that some people thought he should DH against tough lefties instead of Ortiz.

All things considered, Doug was coming off a great season as a backup catcher. Hard to debate that. He had an undeniable rapport with Wakefield that the team (and Wakefield) really valued.

Of course, he was traded after the 05 season and brought back a few weeks into the season at the expense of Cla Meredith and Josh Bard.
