    Seems like he's been around forever. Good luck to him, wherever his next stop is.

    Didn't we trade him for someone once and then he came back as a 6-yr FA?

    I'll always have a place in my heart for Chris George. We used him in a variety of roles and he seemed to always fill the hole. He actually had pretty good years in 2009 & 2010. I think age and the new regime wanting their own players in those slots just caught up with him. Not bad for a guy who was the #3 active leader in the Minors for IP (behind only N. Figueroa and Loux) and for K's (N. Figueroa and Duckworth). Of course, he was also the active career leader in all the Minors for walks.

    Answering my own question, no. Must be thinking of someone else.

    I think that was Ross Wolf, who we traded for Jake Fox.
