castoff

Zach McKinstry, IF/OF, Tigers: Another Dodgers castoff finding a home in Detroit is McKinstry, who has played shortstop, third base, second base and two outfield positions this season.

He was brought here by Ned Colletti before the 2014 season as a New York Mets castoff.

Frustrated with fast fashion’s toxic pollution of the Global South and Los Angeles’ massive apparel industry, they vowed to start Other Lives, which would breathe fresh life into castoff clothing by facilitating revelatory workshops including metalwork and fabric painting.

At the 2023 Seattle Art Fair, her 25-foot-tall castoff wire puppets were showstoppers amid the clean white booths.

Phillips, now 29, transformed himself from castoff to closer, going 10-8 with a 1.74 ERA and 26 saves in 133 games over his first two-plus seasons with the Dodgers and moving from a setup role in 2022 to a ninth-inning role in 2023.
