Doug:
Fieldah to the Rangahs.
Al:
And I have just one word for that...
Albatross!
Mike:
High-priced first baseman everywhere
Gonzalez, Pujols, Teixeira methinks
High-priced first baseman everywhere
Seems most of them go to stink

I think Big Papi has earned an 1 year extension.

Vendor: ALBATROSS!
Albatross!
Patron: Pardon me, do you have any Smarties?
Vendor: No. Just this fucking albatross! Albatross!

I agree with COD, give Papi another year. Also, it would be nice to see Texas go after Cano now that they have an opening at 2nd base. They seem to be willing to spend.

Papi should get another year, even if he is on the shady side of 5.

Friday? Oh, that means I have next week off! (More of my "use 'em or lose 'em vacation days).

Speaking of which, have a great weekend all. Hopefully we'll have something fun to yak about on Monday. I'll check in when I'm not eating grapes peeled for me by Real Dolls.

See you in December.
