Dodgers dump veteran Andy Ibanez weeks after signing to grab Yankees outfielder
NY Post
When you’re the Dodgers, you don’t have to worry about a measly $1.2 million.
The reigning back-to-back World Series champions designated infielder Andy Ibanez for assignment on Tuesday, just weeks after inking him to a one-year, $1.2 million deal.
Clearing the 40-man roster spot allowed the Dodgers to claim outfielder Michael Siani off waivers from the Yankees after the Bronx Bombers previously claimed him off waivers from Los Angeles.
It’s certainly possible Ibanez could remain with the Dodgers should he go unclaimed, but its an interesting turn of events for the veteran.
Ibanez, 32, has spent five years in the majors beginning his career with the Rangers before joining the Tigers for the last three seasons.
The Tigers non-tendered him in November, and the Dodgers added him in early January while paying him a solid amount to bolster their infield depth.
