    Gotcha...so basically the Sox are going to blow him out, and he'll get signed by the Brewers for a year b/c they love Red Sox retreads. More seriously he'll probably get on with the Cubs who will have a little bit of cash to spare and of the big spenders Mets, Sox, Yanks they are the only one with a need at that position. When he gets on the Cubs his arm will fall either fall off or he'll completely dominate the NL. Either way I've seen Bard throw twice this year and he'll be more than effective for you next year - and your 'pen is stupid good this year so it's likely you'll win a third title in the new century.

    I'm back from a fun game, though I dropped Youk's 2nd home run tonight.

    http://mlb.mlb.com/media/video.jsp?content_id=5545043

    Ball hit me so hard that I fell back in my seat and my thumb on my left hand is still swollen.

    Life lesson learned tonight - catching a homer bare handed is not easy.

    nice effort, bring a glove next time and anticipate a home run when the pitcher's back foot doesn't land before the ball reaches the plate. BTW you also made the background of the highlight of Youk's first home run.

    Did the attendents come to check to see if you were alright, some ice would've helped?
