They already have thirteen pitchers, and only three reserve position players, plus they need another lefthanded bat, with Nixon and Varitek (et al) hurt...

Exactly. Plus, Hinske can help give some needed rest to both Mike Lowell and Kevin Youkilis. This could be a good move if Theo is thinking Lowell might not last the entire season and/or dumping Lowell next season.

Yankees - Red Sox doubleheader starting in 30 minutes -- I'm pretty sure one will miss me if I'm not at my desk this afternoon...

Yanks let Johnson off the hook in the first.

[c53x12]

They opened with three straight base hits, one run in, 2 on, nobody out, and then Johnson retired the next three.

 

Soon as this damn conference call is over I'm headed for the nearest bar.

Yankees need this first one. It's the only pitching matchup of the five where they had the definite advantage.

Man, I love the White Sox. It is difficult having such talented opposition such as The Twins and The Tigers but Lord what a team the Sox are....

[Reni]

Those schoolgirl days

Of telling tales and biting nails are gone

But in my mind

I know they will still live on and on

 

But how do you thank someone

who has taken you from crayons to perfume

It isn't easy but I'll try

If you wanted the sky I would write across the sky

in letters that would soar a thousand feet high

To Sir with love.

 

The time has come

for closing books and long last looks must end

And as I leave

I know that I am leaving my best friend

A friend who taught me right from wrong

and weak from strong

That's a lot to learn.

 

What, what can I give you in return

If you wanted the moon I would try to make a start

but I would rather you let me give my heart

To Sir with love.

 

Those awkward years have hurried by, why did they fly away?

Why is it Sir, children grow up to be people some day?

What takes the place of climbing trees and dirty knees in the world outside?

 

What is there for you I could buy?

If you wanted the world I'd surround it with a wall,

I'd scrawl these words with letters ten feet tall,

"TO SIR WTIH LOVE"

Well, I hate to tell you, but as a lifelong Red Sox fan, I loathe the '86 Mets, but thanks for the song dedication anyway, I guess.

So, apparently Strawberry's not currently in prison. I'm not sure Doc Gooden's in that picture, though (hard to tell).

OK, answered my own question:

 

Strawberry and World Series MVP Ray Knight homered in New York's 8-5 victory over Boston in Game 7. Knight' date=' manager Davey Johnson and pitcher Dwight Gooden were among the notable absences from the reunion.

 

Johnson is managing the U.S. national team in an Olympic qualifying tournament that starts Friday in Havana and the Mets said Knight had a prior commitment. Gooden is in a Florida prison for violating his probation by using cocaine.[/quote']

I hated them too.

[bjorn_skurj]

A happy night, to be sure, but tinged with sadness: Tom Glavine has a potentially life-threatening condition and Cliff Floyd's sister died.

[bobbob1313]

Wait, using cocaine is a violation of probation? I call bullshit.

Cracking Red Sox-Yanks game here.
