Kimera Bartee

Kimera Anotchi Bartee (born July 21, 1972) was a Major League Baseball outfielder. He is an alumnus of Creighton University and was also part of Creighton's NCAA College World Series appearance (1991).

Bartee was born in Omaha, Nebraska. Drafted by the Baltimore Orioles in the 14th round of the 1993 MLB amateur draft, Bartee would make his Major League Baseball debut with the Detroit Tigers on April 3, 1996, and appear in his final game on August 3, 2001.

Bartee was sent from the Baltimore Orioles to the Minnesota Twins on September 19, 1995 as the "Player to be Named Later" in the Scott Erickson trade. At the 1995 MLB Winter Meetings, he was a drafted back by the Baltimore Orioles during the Rule V Draft.

Bartee is perhaps best known for being a part of one of the worst trades in recent baseball history. At the conclusion of the 2000 season, Bartee was released by the Cincinnati Reds. After signing with the Anaheim Angels, Bartee was traded from Anaheim to the Colorado Rockies for then-prospect Chone Figgins. Bartee would go hitless in 15 at-bats with Colorado and would then be out of baseball for the rest of that season; he would then play the 2002 season with the Class AAA Iowa Cubs and the 2003 and 2004 seasons with the independent Long Island Ducks before retiring.

Since retiring from playing baseball professionally, Bartee has become the field coach for the Delmarva Shorebirds [http://www.theshorebirds.com/fanzone/roster/index.html?player_id=41] and is currently a roving instructor for the Pittsburgh Pirates.
