RAB goes to Venezuela

By Mike Axisa

JP’s AzFL update is here.

HWB Honolulu (10-3 win over Waikiki)
Ajax: 2 for 3, 2 R, 1 3B, 2 RBI, 1 BB – multihit games (with at least 1 XBH) in 4 of his last 6 contest…yeah, the rust’s off

Venezuela Winter League - if a player doesn’t have a link to a box score, it’s the same as the guy above him
Frankie Cervelli: 0 for 2, 1 BB, 1 K
Marcos Vechionacci: 1 for 3, 1 BB, 1 E (throwing) - hitting .333 thru 3 games 
Gerardo Casadiego: 0.2 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 1 K

Justin Pope, Alberto Gonzalez, Edgar Soto, Edwar Gonzalez, Scott Patterson and Wilmer Pino are also playing for various teams throughout the league. Interestingly enough, Jose Tabata is on the Caribes de Oriente roster, and the six-week rehab period for his surgery is up, so he might actually play.

The VWL is a no joke league, there’s established big leaguers all over the place. Miggy Cabrera, Frankie Rodriguez, Ramon Hernandez & Kelvim Escobar are the best of the bunch. Oh, and Bobby Abreu is on the Leones del Caracas roster.

i dont think abreu is going to play. if my 10th grade spanish class taught me anything, the yankees are prohibiting abreu from playing this winter. Which means the yankees are going to exercise his option I would think?

A MLB Team can cite ‘extreme fatigue’ if a player appeared in 60 games , or had 500 ABs and thus not allow them to play winter ball.
