Jesus Montero, who was once one of the top prospects in baseball, is playing for the Seattle Mariners’ Class-A Everett AquaSox team having been on the disabled list with a strained oblique. Although he wasn’t suited up during Thursday’s game, Montero participated in the game in other ways. According to reports, Montero went into the stands to find a Mariners scout who had been heckling him, and threw ice cream and spit in his face.
