ATTENTION: Kevin Brown is a free agent. Get him while he's hot!
During an online conversation with our favorite comment poster/Chickball groupie, I discovered that Yankees and Red Sox fans DO share something in common: a strong hatred for douchebag Kevin Brown.
Manton: OH MY GOD
Manton: KEVIN BROWN'S A FREE AGENT!!!!
Manton: JLASDFAOSD;F ;ASIFASFAODFHIUASDFJD AIOFIALSDAHUFOA
Me: congratulations
Manton: WHY WASN'T THERE A GIANT SIGN SOMEWHERE ALERTING ALL OF US!!?!?!
Manton: Oh you don't understand
Manton: this is the greatest thing ever
Me: Oh, I understand. If Chief Wall Puncher was on the Sox, I'd be bouncing off the walls right now.
(And now, let's see if any team actually signs the guy.)
In other free agency news, the Mets signed Billy Wagner, yet another step in Omar Minaya's master plan to acquire every high-profile player possible to create the ultimate MLB all-star team. But smart people like us know that will never happen. There always seems to be buzz surrounding the team, always some new player who will carry the Mets to an NL East title. This past season, it was Pedro and Beltran and the team still couldn't cut it. (Granted, the Mets had a decent record and would have won the division title had they been in the NL West instead. But still.) Having lots of money to throw around does not necessarily make a stellar team. In fact, of the teams with the 10 highest payrolls in 2004, the Mets were the only ones who finished under .500. So, they've added an offensively great first baseman (Carlos Delgado, a favorite of mine after his peformance on my fantasy team this past season) and a solid closer. It'll be interesting to see who else Minaya can lure to New York.

I just wanted to add the phrase "Minayacal" to this discussion.
