Rawlins Jackson "Rawly" Eastwick (born October 24, 1950) is an American former professional baseball relief pitcher, who played in Major League Baseball (MLB) for the Cincinnati Reds, St. Louis Cardinals, New York Yankees, Philadelphia Phillies, Kansas City Royals, and Chicago Cubs, from 1975 to 1981.
Eastwick was dealt to the Cardinals for Doug Capilla at the trade deadline on June 15, 1977, as a result of a contract dispute with Reds management.
His desire to become a free agent by not signing a contract with any team for the remainder of the season precluded him from being sent to the New York Mets in the Tom Seaver trade.
He joined a bullpen which already had Sparky Lyle, Dick Tidrow and Goose Gossage the last of whom had signed for $2.7 million two weeks earlier.
[3] Eastwick's time with the Yankees lasted until the day before the trade deadline on June 14, 1978, when he was sent to the Philadelphia Phillies for Jay Johnstone and Bobby Brown.
