That time of year again

Okay... so I am heading to Boston in the morning. Been having anxiety attacks all day.

*sigh*

Boys... I don't get them.

Showing their stripes...

Okay... was I surprised that Johnny Damon joined the NY Yankees?? Of course not. I've been saying all season that it was going to happen. It's a good move on the Yankees part, although I am not sure of the length of the contract. They tend to sign old people to long contracts and then bitch and moan. Whatever.

I am happy, thrilled, elated, to see the Yanks gave Bernie a one year contract. It just shows what class Bernie has. He wanted to stay a Yankee. He could have gotten a little more money elsewhere if he tried. I don't think I could ever see him in any other uniform.

The Angels shipped off Finley.. to the NL (Giants) I will never see him again unless I watch the Mets.

And that could happen. More and more each day I fall in love with David Wright. He is the bright future of the Mets.

The Dodgers are picking up Boston's scraps... D-Lowe, Nomar and Bill Mueller. Crazy. I swear the shock of winning in 04 caused the ownership to lose their minds - letting Pedro and Lowe get away... Mueller, Nomar, Damon, Mirabelli, Millar... At least they had the good sense to resign Varitek. Now if only he had the pitching staff he once had. *sigh* It might be the Yanks in '06 for me...

My favorite players heading into '06:

#1. Jason Varitek (Boston)
#2. Bernie Williams (NYY)
#3. David Wright (NYM)
#4. Derek Lowe (LA)
#5. Mike Mussina (NYY)
