Jamie Moyer Bobblehead
Sellersville native and 2012 IronPig bobblehead recepient, 49 year old Jamie Moyer has been offered a Minor League Contract by theColorado Rockies with an invitation to spring training. {via MLB Trade Rumors}
Ironically, Jamie began his MLB career in 1986 with the Chicago Cubs debuting against “Lefty” Carlton and he garnered his first win. Moyer played for the Phillies from 2006-2010 winning a Championship with the Phils in 2008.
Jamie is only 1 of 8 pitchers to have made appearances in Major League games in 4 separate decades. On May 7, 2010, Moyer became the oldest player in Major League Baseball history (47 years, 170 days) to pitch a shutout. Moyer also became the only MLB pitcher to throw a shutout in four different decades (80s, 90s, 2000s, and 2010s). Quite a résumé to say the least.
Hopefully Jamie will make a full recovery from his 2010 Tommy John surgery and perhaps make an MLB comeback. At the very least the Colorado Rockies can surely benefit from his wisdom.
Career Stats:

Good luck Jamie!
Go Pigs!

Nice post but it bums me out so bad that Jamie won’t be finishing his career in red pinstripes. I mean, we would have had the chance to see him pitch in Allentown regularly! (Until his inevitable call-up)
Really hoping he does a stint at AA before the Rox call him up. I’d love to see what he can do for my Drillers here in Tulsa.
