***WILL BUSH PARDON CLEMENS?***
I hope not. This is Clemen's bed, let him deal with it. If Bush does pardon him, he'd also have to pardon Bonds or be declared a racist. Please Dub-ya, just go quietly into the night.
***KRIS BENSON THROWS IN FRONT OF SCOUTS***
Picasner would rather watch Anna Benson throw.
***VARITEK MET WITH RED SOX OWNER***
No one will touch him because he really can't hit anymore and teams would have to give up a 1st round draft choice. It wouldn't be wise to take him on as a defensive player because Picasner thinks his reflexes are shot, too. As previously stated, he wasn't 'catching' the ball anymore, he was just stopping it.
***MICHAEL YOUNG AGREES TO PLAY THIRD***
Glad you woke up, Mike. Your agent must have explained to you that that was a no-win situation.
***RYAN MADSON TURNS DOWN 3 YRS @ $4 MILLION***
Why? $4 million for a middle reliever in this economy? (Can you say Scott Boras?) Take it, take it.
***TWINS INTERESTED IN GAGNE***
Why, again? Did Gossage turn them down? He was signed as the Brewers closer last year and made all the way to May before cooler heads prevailed. I hear his new nickname is "Gasoline Gagne".
***4 TEAMS INTERESTED IN FREDDIE GARCIA***
Including the Yanks. Garcia threw all of 15 innings last year. This has got to be a gamble for a 32-year old ground ball pitcher.
***BARTOLO COLON SIGNING WITH THE WHITE SOX***
He has to pass a physical which could be interesting since Colon leads the league in after-game buffets. Some players negotiate for a special room on the road: Colon asks for an industrial strength knife and fork ("I don't need no stinkin' spoon").
***BRIAN CASHMAN, PLEASE CALL ANNIE-O***
The Pirates are talking to Doug Mientkiewcz. Doesn't look good, Annie.
***27 DAYS TILL PITCHERS AND CATCHERS***
