Re: Vogelbach DFA'd

There is something to be said about having a bat in your hands and doing some damage. I once went after a neighbor's car with a bat but decided to take a walk.

Seems like Toronto has a history of getting a year or so of offense from a 1st Baseman that couldn't get out of his own way here.
