Your Marlins Diaspora Guide to the 2009 Playoffs

It's playoff time, and while the Marlins will be watching from home, we can at least follow the lucky children of the Marlins Diaspora who managed to make the playoffs with another team. Here's the lucky few who made it to the playoffs:

NY Yankees: AJ Burnett, P
Minnesota Twins: Mike Redmond, C; Carl Pavano, P
LA Angels: Darren Oliver, P
Boston Red Sox: Mike Lowell, 3B; Josh Beckett, P; Alex Gonzalez, SS

LA Dodgers: Juan Pierre, OF
St. Louis Cardinals: no former Marlins
Philadelphia Phillies: Paul Bako, C
Colorado Rockies: no former Marlins

As you can see, it is not a great list, with the exception of the Boston Red Sox. But on the plus side, we will get to see some former favorites on a big stage. And if Carl Pavano can make some big outs for the Twins against his former Yankee employers, all the better.
