Oil Can Boyd

'Oil Can' Boyd looking for comeback at age 49 by FOXSports.com It's been 18 years since Dennis "Oil Can" Boyd last pitched in the Major Leagues, but he figures he's still got some gas left in that tank. "Oil Can" Boyd went 78-77 with a 4.04 ERA in his 10-year career. The 49-year-old wants an MLB team to give him a look this spring, according to a report in the Boston Globe. Says Boyd, "I have nothing to lose, and all a major league team has to lose is 15 minutes. Give me 15 minutes and I'll show I can still pitch. That's all I want." And he says he's still got some pretty good stuff,

Me too. I've been on a big NP/Newman kick recently.

I really liked that book.

Al Jefferson tore his ACL. Big bummer for the Timberwolves.

That's what I thought too right when it happened but they showed pretty clearly on the replay that he was out of the pocket. Madden even used the telestrator.

I really like that album. And by "that album" I mean Oh My God Charlie Darwin by the Low Anthem.

Nice! I think I'll listen to that on my way home tonight.

I really enjoyed all four of the Rabbit books.

Yes, indeed. Happy birthday!

I was picturing the live version (without the tambourine and horn) ...

Nice choice ...

My 10 year old daughter really liked it and that's good enough for me.

It's a great, great album - and I only have it on vinyl. I was looking for it on CD recently (after I learned that Pat Leonard passed away) and couldn't find a copy.

If he makes it (and I think he will) I wonder what hat he'll wear. Giants?

I've been listening to this alot.
