River Ave. Blues ยป Cervelli withdraws from World Baseball Classic

Cervelli withdraws from World Baseball Classic

Yankees did not talk about a multi-year contract with Phil Hughes
Open Thread: 2/16 Camp Notes

Via Chad Jennings: Frankie Cervelli confirmed that he was withdrawn from the World Baseball Classic. He was scheduled to play for Team Italy.

Cervelli, 27 next month, will compete with Chris Stewart, Austin Romine, and I suppose Bobby Wilson for one of the team’s two catching spots. So yeah, it was a very smart decision on his part to remain with the club in camp so he can do as much as possible to impress the decision makers. Cervelli apparently has a minor league option left and I doubt he wants to return to Triple-A.
