Although Jos defended Alex passionately, in the end, even he had to agree with my arguments in favor of Alex being the Antichrist.
These included photos showing Alex`s ability to change into a cow, the ominious similarity of the initials A.C., and a complex mathematical equation from Catamount Mayhugh showing that the numerical value of Alex`s name was 666.
Jos helped the rest of us try to throw Alex into the Frary Fountain (which we had recently learned was filled with holy water) as a final test, but knowing that this would destroy him, Alex managed to slip out of our grasp.

 Alex Cabrera in Japan - NetShrine Discussion Forum
I would imagine Cabrera would jump at the chance to play in the majors.
I think probably either Petagine or Cabrera would be better than a lot of guys with jobs at the moment - neither are likely to be huge impact players, and they are both getting a little long in the tooth, Cabrera 32 (if his published age is correct) and Petagine turning 33 (as before).
They're the kind of people that would look good in a half dozen line-ups, but I can also understand not playing them in front of younger people who might have a higher upside.
