Jose Cruz designated for assignment

Jose cruz was designated for assingment today by the d-backs. Probably will go to the yanks.

Yanks don't have any interest in him, mainly because he's worse at defense then Bernie Williams is. He used to be a gold glover, but it seemed to desert him last year in Tampa. He walks a lot, but also he strikes out his fair share too. He isn't a good runner as he was in Toronto, and probably would be a below average 4th outfielder. He hits right handers much better than he hits lefties, (12 HR's in 158 AB's.)

 

He might be a option for the Red Sox for about 4 days, Gabe Kapler has gotten 6 hits, in his last 8 AB's in Pawtucket. He went 2-4, and his average actually fell. (He's hitting .600)

I remember on opening day a few years ago he made a great catch when he was with the jays that was the play of the game. Chris carpenter was starting for the jays.
