[edit] Biographical Information
Wilson Betemit came up briefly at a young age with the Atlanta Braves, and was later traded to the Los Angeles Dodgers where, despite a decent eye and some pop, he didn't live up to expectations. This led to a deadline trade to the New York Yankees in 2007.
Note: On some sites, notably mlb.com and espn.com, Wilson Betemit's age is listed wrong. B-Ref has it right. Betemit went through reverse age-gate back in 2000. See: [1] for details.
Betemit was dealt to the Yankees at the trade deadline in 2007, being exchanged for reliever Scott Proctor.
