Mendez was the lottery ticket that got us Salty.  Now I guess he's more like one of those scratch ticket second chance drawings.  Live arm still - worth a shot at no cost.

Just turned 25.
 
Which makes him about a month younger than Barnes, 8 months younger than Noe Ramirez, and 16 months younger than Hembree.
 
Listed at 235 lbs.
Which makes him "20 lbs" lighter than Machi.
 
Certainly worth another shot as the season winds down.
