ATLANTA -- Atlanta Braves Executive Vice President and General Manager Frank Wren announced today that the Braves have agreed to terms with infielder/outfielder Scott Spiezio on a Minor League contract for the 2008 season.
Spiezio, 35, has appeared in 1,274 career games with four different clubs since 1996. He owns a .255 career batting average, 119 home runs and 549 RBIs and has collected two World Series rings - with the Anaheim Angels in 2002 and with the St. Louis Cardinals in 2006. Spiezio was released by the Cardinals on Feb. 27 following an off-the-field incident that occurred this past offseason. |
