Humanitarian Act of Kindness

Yanks finally release minor-league lifer Kevin Thompson.

Immediately, the outfielder is signed by Oakland.

The line: Two weeks shy of age 29... Lifetime .276 minor league average... 229 stolen bases... 64 home runs... got 51 MLB at bats, whiffed 19 times... free, free at last.

Somewhere, Marcus Thames' wheelchair mom is rejoicing.
