They have stopped talking about the redsox [here] and have gone back to questioning the intergrity of the Pirate owners.

First, some Good news. Micheal Mchenry has been retained! I'm so happy.
The pirates will not pick up Catchers Ryan Doumit or Chris Snyders options,
Or Paul Malholm (Pitcher). Those three are worth 19 million next year. Suddenly our low payroll got alot lower. Makes me wonder if Micheal is going to get a million.

We have a catcher in the minors, Jason Jaramillo, who is ready to come up. The only reason he didn't get the call when Ryan broke his ankle (and the sox gave us Micheal) was JJ had a fractured jaw. So we are set at catcher. That frees up alot of cash. I say keep moving. I can't help but remember how many games we won with HUNGRY minor league players, while our veterans were out with injuries. The tale of two teams.

The sports people seem to think the warmer climate in Texas will bring on the hitting. I'm ready!
