Wily Mo Is Alive and Living in Arizona!

The Diamondbacks will sign Wily Mo Pena to a minor league deal with an invitation to major league Spring Training, MLBTR has learned. The outfielder drew interest from multiple major league teams, including the Tigers, White Sox and Orioles. He also drew interest from clubs in Japan before signing in Arizona, where he expects to compete for the starting left field job. Pena's deal is worth $675K, according to Alex Speier of WEEI.com, who notes that the Astros also had interest. The slugger hit 26 home runs and posted an .843 OPS as a 22-year-old on the 2004 Reds.

There's one thing you can't take away from Wily Mo. Nobody else sat on the fastball more than he did. The young man could simply mash it. Actually that's about all he could do. This seriously made my day. Big fan of Wily Mo Pena
