Dante Cruz

Throws 98 and a grudge. Dante's 31, a right-hander for the Durham Bulls, down from the majors after a torn elbow and not over it. East LA, Boyle Heights — proud, sharp-tongued, homesick, and certain he doesn't belong in this town. Insists he isn't angry, he's accurate. There's a name and a date inked on his arm, and exactly one of them he'll explain.
