Mack’s 25-man: UT-C - Vinny Buddabatz

 I originally had Mike Nickeas here. That is, until the Mets signed C-LF Vinny Rottino.
Rottino is an undrafted free agent that has spent time with Milwaukee, the Dodgers (traded for Claude Vargas) and Florida. He's had a few cups of coffee, but nothing to speak of.

The 31-year old bats right (Thole is a lefty), has some pop and also knows how to run the bases. His defensive stats both behind the plate and out in left are good.

Remember now... we build our 25-man with what we have and, though no one has said this, it sure looks like this is going to be Josh's backup for the 2012 season.

That’s 23… 2 to go
