Alfredo Amezaga Jumps On Board The Train To, Hopefully, AAA

Amezaga has reportedly signed a 1-year minor league deal, according to his agent, and via Dylan Hernandez. The deal pays him $650,000 if he makes it back to the show; the deal is worth up to $800,000 if incentives are reached.

Amezaga is 32 and has a career .311 OBP and .341 SLG %.

Oh, and this nugget sure makes me feel all warn and fuzzy:

"Amezaga underwent microfracture surgery in July and started to run only three weeks ago."
