I know I said I’d be following up on my “If I was Omar” post with some additional posts. And they are coming. This weekend. I promise!
But first, some musing.
When did JD Drew get clutch? Maybe I just bought the rep on him.
I would give several toes, maybe even an earlobe, to have 5 starting pitchers under contract with an average age of 25 and an average ERA+ of 113 like those Tampa Bay Rays. Of course, one of those pitchers ought to be ours…
How was I so wrong about Phillies pitching? Jamie Moyer? Seriously? His ERA last year was OVER FIVE. I guess Brett Myers quit punching his wife long enough to remember how to pitch. Omar can learn a thing or two from Gillick about building a bullpen from the scrap heap.
Who else is disappointed by Britney’s new hit single? I was really expecting a lot, but the music just doesn’t back up the gyrating naked rolling around. Even a little touch of crazy to spice it up doesn’t do the job.
Try again, Brit. Try again, Rays. Boy, I need more Saturdays.
JD Drew was also clutch last year (well, just once, but still)- the $14 million grand slam, according to Bill Simmons.
Beyonce’s new song isn’t very good, either. I’m sad.
