It's been a busy week in the life of the Yankees Chick (ESPN still hasn't hired me to take over Bonnie Bernstein's position as Token Female Broadcaster, so I've been forced to continue to show up at both work and school), but despite my pleading to slow down until the weekend, the baseball gods orchestrated several interesting tales throughout the week. Much as I love to rant and rave in depth about everything from Boston's spending to Bernie's guitar work, I feel I must put my pending Balco Expose and 2007 team preview articles on hold in favor of a rundown of the current events, so let's saddle up and take a quick gander - if it can't be summed up in 10 words or less I'll have to revisit the issue at a later date* - at the goings-on in the baseball world:
JD Drew: Shoulder will bust. I will laugh at Red Sox. Roger Clemens: Yanks still want him, Cano offers number. Rocket says nothing. Bernie: Looks like retirement vs. minor league deal. Designated dugout guitarist? Bonds: Contract stalled. No one likes him. Pavano: Working out, wants to pitch. God help us all. Sammy Sosa Comeback: He didn't juice, like I didn't cheer against Boston in '04. Extra Innings moves to Direct TV: Conspiracy by the government and their Big Satellite ties. Spring Training: 1st game on March 1. Fly me out there? 2008 All-Star Game: Yankees host. NL will fall short...again. Jeter and Jessica Biel: Mary Camden is too good for Jeter? No ma'am. * see Sosa, Sammy and Bonds, Barry - - I wasn't joking about the upcoming Balco article... Labels: bern bernie bern, free agency/arbitration, pavano must die, rumors, steroids |
I hope you're right about Drew... if not, he could provide an extra force to an already powerful Boston lineup.
