Where Are Dem O's Now? Royals Edition
The Orioles aquired Denny Bautista in 2003 for Jeff Conine.
In 2004, we traded him to Kansas City for old and busted reliever Jason Grimsley, whose arm promptly exploded and sent him to the magical land of Tommy John surgery.
Yesterday afternoon, Bautista struck out seven Yankees in five innings, allowed four earned runs and took the loss.
Jason Grimsley is, surprisingly, not bagging groceries at your local Super Walmart. He's getting torched out in Arizona, currently sporting a not-so-lovely 8.31 ERA.
Winner in all this: Kansas City
