I thought he already signed a minor league contract somewhere?

Man, I pray that is true. LoDuca personifies the "Bloomquist-type" player we were taling about: great hustle, great clubhouse guy, poor on-field performance.
But he'll be 37 next year, and that's not old for a catcher, is it? Plus, he had that kick-ass 63 OPS+ last season. Sign his ass.

There's nothing better than to realize that the good things about youth don't end with youth itself. It's a matter of realizing that life can be renewed every day you get out of bed without baggage. It's tough to get there, but it's better than the dark thoughts. -Lance
