The Chicago White Sox have released Freddie Bynum, according to Mark Gonzales of the Chicago Tribune (via Twitter). The Sox signed Bynum to a minor league contract earlier in the winter, but parted ways with the infielder today, allowing him to pursue opportunities in Japan.
The 29-year-old last played in the majors in 2008 with the Orioles. For his career, he has posted a .234/.275/.379 line in 188 games.
Come on Hiroshima Carp!!! This is your guy!!!!
“For his career, he has posted a .234/.275/.379 line in 188 games.”
Surprised Ozzie didn’t try to DH him.
And he’s definitely not a pesky base clogger.
Next stop for Freddy, Cincinnati Reds! He’s a Dusty kind of player. Might even be given the leadoff job before ST gets into full swing.
Ahhh good ole Freddie Bynum. Every time Kevin Millar would come up in the 9th inning of a close game Freddie Bynum would start stretching in the dugout, in case Millar somehow found a way on base. That was about all he was good for.
