CORBAN JOSEPH WAS OUTRIGHTED


Now, for all you new baseball fans who aren't familiar with the word "outrighted", it doesn't mean that Corban Joseph was brought out to the woodshed and roughed up.  In this case, it means that Joseph was sent straight to Scranton Wilkes-Barre. When the Yanks made the moves the other day to fill out the 40 man roster, (Read BIG MOVES IN THE YANKEES YOUTH MOVEMENT) Joseph was one of the moving parts. Don't panic. You can read about it HERE.

Read what "outrighted" means:
"A player who is outrighted to the minors is removed from the 40-man roster but is still paid according to the terms of his guaranteed contract. A player can only be outrighted once in his career without his consent." 
Thank you Wikipedia.  Now how many baseball websites are going to take the time to give you that lesson? 

Be nice... pass it on.
