Soxies update
Since B is such a Red Sox fan, I have been educating myself on baseball stats, famous players, plays and Fenway Park. Like B I am not happy that Schilling was given another year at Fenway. He is a loud-mouth and very inconsistent. (Yes, his record was good during the play offs, but all the other games also count.)
I am now hoping that they also bring Lowell back. I like Lowell’s beard because it reminds me of Papa Schellenberg’s beard. Plus, Lowell seems really nice and I would not mind if he petted me for a while. I would not allow Schilling to touch me. The Soxies have to hurry up, though, to get Lowell. Their exclusive "talk time" with him is up today:

Deadline day for Lowell
It’s crunch time in the Mike Lowell negotiations. The Red Sox lose
their exclusive negotiating rights with the third baseman when the
clock strikes midnight on Monday night, and according to the Herald’s
Rob Bradford, the team was continuing to work with Lowell’s agents in
the hope of reaching an agreement before that deadline. It’s been
widely rumored that the Red Sox have offered Lowell a three-year deal
in the neighborhood of $36 million, but will that be enough? According
to the Globe’s Nick Cafardo, Lowell’s side believes a four-year deal at
around $56 million might be attainable on the open market. Will Lowell
be willing to leave that on the table to stay in Boston? Or might the
Red Sox step up their offer before the deadline? Stay tuned …
Theo, what are you waiting for? He is the bestest third base man.
