MLB News & Notes (other than Cubs or Sox)
<!--quoteo(post=124480:date=Dec 29 2010, 08:11 AM:name=Butcher)-->QUOTE (Butcher @ Dec 29 2010, 08:11 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}><!--quotec-->O's looking at D-Lee? Man...it's like they're literally trying to assemble an all ex-Cubs team there.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->

And they are not done yet, a couple of MLB sources have quoted off the record that they are aggressively going after both Bartman and the goat.
Fat Bastard is an immensely obese, hardly able to walk (weighing a metric ton) gardener and henchman hailing from Scotland. His extreme size endows Fat Bastard with super-human strength as exhibited by his prowess in the Sumo ring from Goldmember. This makes him a formidable enemy for Austin Powers. Fat Bastard is noted for his foul temper, his frequent flatulence, his vulgar and revolting bad manners and his unusual eating habits, which include taste for Human infants (which he calls "the other other white meat") or anything that looks like a baby, e.g. small people. Fat Bastard has been a regular at Cub games since the early 80's when he tried several times (unsuccessfully) to eat the visiting San Diego Chicken.

Lee signs with the O's. One year deal.

Sounds like The Rangers and Beltre are discussing a 6 year/$96 million deal. I wonder what they will do with Young?

I read this morning that he will probably be a part-time DH if they can't move him.

Renteria signs a one year deal with the Reds, so we get to see him 18 or so times this year. I hope his head meets a fastball.

These guys are truly spoiled. It reminds me of when Latrell Spreewell, after nearly choking his coach to death, made a big stink about being <i>insulted</i> by an offer of $14,000,000 to shoot some hoops for 6 months. "I gotta feed my family" was his quote.

Five or six years later, he was broke. Am I a bad person for chortling when I read that they repossessed his yacht?
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

Wow very interesting developments. There was a lot of chatter that Damon was going to go back to the Yankees.

So the Rays added 1.25 players today? And they just got a whole lot older.
