Jose Lima has had a long and distinguished career of traveling to unexpected, undisclosed locales. For example, did you know that Lima has been in Japan for a year or so? Or that, before arriving there, he played in the Mexican league? Did you even know there was a Mexican league? Me neither.

But Lima's skills are in demand stateside yet again, and he is making a glorious return. Lima Time is back:
The Liberty Division First Half Champion Camden Riversharks announced the signing of right handed pitcher Jose Lima Friday. Lima, 35, has 13 years of major league service time dating back to his debut in 1994.
Lima pitched well for the Kia Tigers, and as Ape at Deadspin notes, could straggle his way on to a Major League Roster any day now. That's the dream, anyway. For now, Camden, New Jersey, will house the dreams of Lima. Unfortunately, Camden is where dreams go to die. Whoops.
