The story isn’t online, but here’s a teaser from the new issue of Sports Illustrated:
STILL KICKIN’ IT
He was once the unlikeliest of idiots in a band of heroes that made history. Nearly a decade later, Bronson Arroyo is still standing, still chilling to his own beat, still one of the game’s most dependable innings-eaters.
I believe Wily Mo Peña played in Japan last year. Not sure what he’s doing this year.

So, a partial answer – he’s played 40 games in Japan this year. OPS of .592, no HRs.
But hey, Arroyo’s OPS this year is .162 with no HRs. So there. 🙂
