How’s that trade working out? (XX)

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.

  1. First – XX? Really?

    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. 🙂

      …and Dice-K is now a minor leaguer playing in the states. Go figure.
