There was a pitcher named Javier Lopez, but I think he never went by Javy in order to not be mistaken for the catcher Javier Lopez. In any case, I don't think he's pitched for several years.

[rj_madison]

Yeah, there is a reliever by that name. He's with the BoSox now.

Javy was with the Braves during spring training this year.

[rj_madison]

Yes he was. And decided it was time to hang it up. Retired Javy.

[rj_madison]

The catcher, that is.
