Busy week on the free agent market. Cleveland made a big committment to Bobby Abreu with a $14 million contract for this season. The Fukudome bidding appears to be down to two teams with the Cubs and Red Sox battling it out for the services of the outfield import from Japan.Thanks to Chris for picking up the slack over the weekend when I was ill. It's always fun to wake up at 12:30 am to the sound of your son throwing up in his bed. Macaroni & cheese just doesn't hold the same appeal when it comes back up.
Opening day is only 22 days away. Seems just like yesterday that my Sox were wrapping up the sweep of the Rox here in Colorado. It's going to be a tough road for them to try to repeat. In today's market, the big market teams have just too much money for one team to dominate. The Yanks will be there as usual and the Mets made a big splash w/ Santana. But, that's why they play the game on the field and not in the papers. I'm looking forward to our first season. I think things have gone quite well in the preseason and I feel that we're in for a very active and competitive 2008 season.
