Player Bio:
Jaime Lee Bubela (born June 6, 1978 in Houston, Texas) is a former Major League Baseball outfielder who played one season for the Seattle Mariners (2005). Prior to college, he was a star quarterback at Cypress Falls High School. Dane Bubela, his younger brother, graduated from Cypress Falls a couple years later, attended Blinn College, and played a couple of years in the minors.
Jaime attended Baylor University. In 1999, he played collegiate summer baseball with the Wareham Gatemen of the Cape Cod Baseball League, where he won the league's Thurman Munson Award for Batting Champion - leading all hitters with a .370 batting average. He was drafted in the 7th round of the 2000 Major League Baseball Draft by the Seattle Mariners. He suffered a knee injury in 2004, which was partially to blame for his short career.
In 2005, he batted .292 and stole 40 bases for Double-A San Antonio, and in a five-game playoff series, he batted .409. This earned him a September call up, and he made his major league debut on September 15, 2005. He collected two hits in 20 at bats over 11 games appearing mostly in centerfield. He played his final major league game on October 2, 2005.
