Minor league veteran infielder Eduardo Rios is joining Telemarket Rimini of the Italian League this year. Rios spent four seasons in the Los Angeles Dodgers system before embarking on a long stint in the Mexican League. He led the Liga in homers with 33 in 2006. Rios also spent some time playing in Korea.
In 2008, Rios split the season between the Lincoln Saltdogs and Brockton Rox of the, with a combined .275 average, 11 homers and 52 RBIs. He spent this winter in his native Venezuela playing for the Lara Cardenales, batting .244. The 36-year-old first baseman is expected to add power to a Rimini lineup that only managed 18 homers as a team in 2007.
