RotoWire's Preseason Outlooks

2013

There was no outlook written for Ricky Bottalico.

2006

Bottalico finished last season with Triple-A Pawtucket in the Red Sox organization after being released by Milwaukee in July. He is no longer with Boston and offers little hope for resurrecting his career in 2006

2004

Bottalico spent most of 2003 at Triple-A Tucson, and retired five out of ten batters in two games in a cup of coffee with Arizona. 114 career MLB saves, but only three since the end of the 2000 season. With short relievers, as in the real world, you never know exactly where lightning will strike, but you also have no reason to believe it'll strike here.
