Ottawa, ON - The Ottawa Titans Baseball Club announced today the signings of infielder Ivan Marin and catcher Daniel Molinari for the upcoming 2023 Frontier League season.


Marin, 34, returns to professional baseball in North America for the first time since 2019.

Marin has recently been named to Team Nicaragua for the upcoming World Baseball Classic this spring.

 

Molinari, 26, joins the Titans after splitting the 2022 campaign with three different clubs throughout the independent circuit. In 42 games, Molinari hit .254 with three home runs and 17 RBI for the Pioneer League’s Ogden Raptors and Idaho Falls Chukars and the American Association’s Lake Country DockHounds. The 5-foot-11 right-handed hitter has played catcher, first base, and in the outfield over the course of a five-year professional career.
