Yankees release Jonathan Albaladejo

The Yankees released Jonathan Albaladejo today. The Triple-A hero never had a great run with the Bronx Bombers. 

Anyone remember who the Yankees traded to get Albaladejo? It was Tyler Clippard, back in 2008, who just led all relievers in wins last year (11).

OK, wins don’t mean a lot for relievers. But Clippard is coming off two great years for the Nationals and Albaladejo hasn’t even compared.

Props to the Nationals; they traded him after his 1.88 ERA in 14-1/3 IP in 2007.
