Hah!

Sounds like the confirms from dubious sources are being confirmed by genuine sources.

Sox got Schilling.

Here's hoping that settles the rotation down a bit.

It's too much to hope for that this'll stop the stupid political flamewars on asbb-r, though. Hot stove season is murder on usenet.

It probably says something about me that I think that pitchers and catchers reporting is a significantly more important aspect of February than my birthday.

(84 days and counting . . .)

Woot!

$12 million... not so bad. I mean, /comparatively/.

Are they still going after Foch? (Fock? Whatever his name is; I've been listening to WEEI, see.)

[kiya]

Foulke, maybe?

This is all I know, if you mean him.

[juliansinger.livejournal.com]

Yeah, him.

*eyes that story* I love how Kim is /so/ no longer in the picture. "We have always been at war with Eurasia."

[kiya]

Well, Kim's always said that he wants to start. Maybe they're settled on that.

...Could be... I got the impression during the playoffs that they just didn't want to deal with him anymore, but the reality is, he has a contract, so...

My whiteboard has the following note on it:

REDSOX
The magic number is:
~120
(+1 new manager)

The +1 new manager comment was added by my equally-baseball-addicted coworker. We're still waiting on the word of who said manager is - I will erase that comment when it comes up.

Hurrah for another good starting pitcher!

[kiya]

Hm. I think technically the magic number at this point is 163 -- it's the number of Sox wins + second place in the division losses it would take to clinch, not the number of wins the Sox need.

Geekerily speaking, and if you want an exact figure. ;)

[keshwyn]

Wow.

I bow before your extreme geekliness. I will fix my whiteboard when I go in on Wednesday. :)

We aim to geek.
