    Via Mark Feinsand, Dewayne Wise has cleared waivers and been outrighted to Triple-A, though Wise has yet to accept the assignment. Wise hit .329/.400/.579 earlier this year for Empire State before being called up to the Yankees’ bench, where he hit .262/.286/.492 while being used mostly as a pinch runner and defensive replacement off of the bench. He was designated for assignment to make room for Ichiro Suzuki on Monday.

His career spanned the golden era of the Fifties, the pitching era of the Sixties and into the disco days of the Seventies. He had a rubber arm and made 987 appearances in the majors spanning 2139+ innings for five different teams. He is fifteenth on the all time list in appearances. One of the most memorable things about Lindy was that at the age of 37 and 38, he made eight starts mixed in with his 78 relief appearances and threw complete games in three of them! But the most memorable thing about him, of course, was that he was a Yankee.
