Walter Ibarra Jumps Ship To The Chicago Cubs

Long time New York Yankees prospect Walter Ibarra has become a minor league free agent and has decided to leave New York and go to the Chicago Cubs on a minor league deal. The 26 year old career minor leaguer finally reached AAA last season with the Scranton Wilkes Barre RailRiders and will now look to provide the Cubs with some middle infield depth. Ibarra is coming off a triple slash of .276/.308/.367 but is known far more for his glove then his bat. Good luck to Ibarra and we hate to see him go.
