That funny sound you hear is the bottom of the barrel being scraped.
East Coast Bias
Every team calls up their prospects during September. Are you saying they are scraping the bottom of their minor league barrel? I’m confused.
Rational Yankee Fan
I will never understand why Yankee fans were so adamant that Almonte should be on the team. He has over 3,000 minor league PA’s with a .763 OPS – he has never torn it up and the organization clearly didn’t see a future for him as anything more than an injury fill in. I’m sure someone will pick him up and let him play in their minor league system, but no team is going to give him a starting MLB job.

And who were these fans? Most Yankees fans only wanted him on the team if Ichiro was traded and only then he would have been a 4th outfielder at best.
Michael 22
Arguably, the second greatest Zoilo in MLB history.

Matt Daley will always be remembered as the guy who relieved Mariano Rivera in Mo’s last game.

“Matt Daley? Who the fudge is that?”
“You know, the guy who relieved Mo in his last game ever.”
“Oh, that guy? I thought his name was Steve or something.”

Zoilo has talent, he’s bound to be picked up by a team with a weak outfield.
