GUESS WHERE JUAN RIVERA ENDED UP?

Juan Rivera got a job! I'm glad. I felt bad that the guy was busting ass this Spring for the Yanks and as soon as a real first baseman in Lyle Overbay became available, he was dropped like a bad habit.  Hey, that's baseball, but the timing was right and it appears that everything has worked out for everyone now.

Juan Rivera has signed a minor league contract with the Arizona Diamondbacks.  You can read that report from MLB.com's Tyler Emerick HERE. Emerick says: "The D-backs signed outfielder Juan Rivera to a Minor League contract on Tuesday. The 12-year veteran was last with the Yankees in Spring Training before being released.

In 109 games with the Dodgers last season, Rivera hit .244 with nine homers and 47 RBIs."


Boom... there you go.
