Yadier Molina Joins Cardinals as Temporary Coach for Weekend Series
St. Louis Cardinals legend Yadier Molina returned to the team's dugout this weekend, joining the coaching staff for their series against the Chicago Cubs at the invitation of manager Oliver Marmol. The 19-year veteran catcher, who retired in 2022, will spend 48 hours assisting the team, particularly working with the catchers. Molina, who is set to manage Puerto Rico in the 2026 World Baseball Classic, has indicated he will consider a full-time big league coaching position after his son graduates high school.
