It's that time of year

Time for me to predict the Red Sox will win the AL East!

Good stuff

The new beta blog

I'm trying something new with the labels on my post. See if you can pick up any themes.

A good non-move by the Nationals

My first baseball prediction of the 2007 season!

Mariners, Guillen agree on 1-year deal

The Mariners and Guillen agreed on a one-year, $5.5 million contract Monday with a $9 million mutual option for 2008, giving Seattle a starting right fielder and a dangerous bat in the middle of the order.

Sixty-nine games played last year. The year before that, he hit .246/.306/.395 after the All-Star Break. He stunk, he stinks, and he will stink. And the Mariners are paying his $5.5 million to do it. And they gave up a draft pick, which is now the property of the Nationals, too.

On the other hand, I will miss "Jose, Jose, Jose, Jose" sung to the tune of "Ole', ole', ole', ole'," that soccer chant.
