ARLINGTON -- Looking to improve their backup
catcher position, the Yankees acquired Sal Fasano from
the Phillies on Wednesday morning.
New York sent Minor League infielder Hector Made to
Philadelphia to complete the deal.
To make room for Fasano on their roster, the Yankees
designated Kelly Stinnett for assignment.
Fasano, 34, batted .243 with four home runs and 10
RBIs in 50 games with the Phillies before landing on the
disabled list on July 4 with left knee inflammation. He
was designated for assignment on July 22.
Fasano spent the 2004 season in the Yankees
organization, spending Spring Training with New York
before being sent to Triple-A Columbus for the year. In
368 career games with six teams, Fasano owns a career
batting average of .225 with 45 home runs and 125 RBIs.
Stinnett, 36, hit just .228 in 34 games with the Yankees
this season, striking out 29 times in 79 at-bats. He was
signed by the Yankees this winter to replace John
Flaherty as Jorge Posada's backup, but he did not live up to expectations at the plate.
Made, 21, hit .286 in 86 games with Class A Tampa in
2006. He was signed by the Yankees as a non-drafted
free agent out of the Dominican Republic on July 17, 2001.

這是擷取自洋基官網的新聞，
好像是Stinnet怎麼樣了，
還有洋基補強了一個新捕手，
有人看的懂嗎？
