Playing career: Reliever Paul Assenmacher appeared in 884
games for the Braves, Cubs, Yankees, White Sox and Indians from 1986 to 1999,
going 61-44 with 56 saves and a 3.53 ERA.
My memories: The Yankees acquired him as well as Lee Smith
to shore up the bullpen for the 1993 stretch run. He pitched well for the
Yankees and I was disappointed when they quickly traded him in the off-season
for an anonymous minor leaguer (who turned out to be Brian Boehringer, who
pitched, but not particularly well, for the 1996 champs).
Where he is now: Assistant Varsity Baseball Coach at St.Pius X Catholic High School in Atlanta.
Google Autocomplete results: He is fourth when you type Paul
As, between Paul Assaiante, Head Squash Coach at Trinity College, and Paul
Ashworth Capital Economics, referring to the Chief North America Economist at
the consulting firm. There do not appear to be any other prominent Paul
Assenmachers.
Coming up next: The next profile will be Pedro Astacio.
