CLEARWATER, Fla. (AP) - March 28, 2009 Coste finally found out Saturday morning that the Phils had sent
Ronny Paulino, who had been competing with Coste for the backup
catcher's job, to the San Francisco Giants in exchange for
left-handed reliever Jack Taschner.
Coste will back up returning starter Carlos Ruiz.
The 36-year-old Coste is entering his four season with the
Phillies. He wrote a book last year on the journey of spending 11
years in independent and minor leagues before breaking through to
the majors.
