Greg Bird has almost reached a Jacoby Ellsbury level of anonymity. Nary a word was uttered about the New York Yankees‘ first basemen’s whereabouts until a truth bomb was dropped Tuesday afternoon.
Bird is in the Dominican Republic and not for a vacation. No, the lanky lefty is playing baseball. No, seriously. He’s actually playing baseball.
The announcement of Bird’s participation in the Dominican League came on Twitter from the Gigantes del Cibao, his team.
