CLUB JOURNEY
From 2007 to 2019 he played in a number of independent and minor leagues in the United States of America and Mexico. He has played for several Triple-A league teams, the highest level of the minor leagues, including eight games in 2013 for the Buffalo Bisons, affiliated with MLB side the Toronto Blue Jays, and 23 games in 2019 for the Los Angeles Dodger's affiliate team, the Oklahoma City Dodgers. He has played on and off in the Atlantic League throughout his career, where he was named league MVP in 2012. "The irony is none of us are trying to be Atlantic League Hall of Famers. We're trying to use this as a stepping stone to get out of here. Ultimately the goal is to play in the major leagues." (buffalonews.com, 25 Aug 2013; baseball-reference.com, 02 Sep 2019)
