Via Ken Rosenthal:Third baseman Edgardo Alfonzo, who last played in the majors in 2006, is intriguing clubs with his performance in the Venezuelan Winter League. Alfonzo, 35, has a batting average/on-base/slugging line of .322/.383/.483, with eight home runs and 42 RBIs in 60 games. He also lost weight, and could make a worthwhile investment on a minor-league deal, starting at Class AAA and working back to the majors.I'm just saying...
Take a chance, Omar! It can't get much worse.
(And I know he was primarily and third basemen, but he did play 549 games at second base. And don't jump down my throat, I'm 99 percent kidding.)
