NY Times and the Mexicutioner
The New York Times baseball blog "Bats" (With all the smart people that work at the Times, "Bats" was the best name they could come up with? Really?) had a post on the Mexicutioner featuring JoPo, Rob and Rany.

Well if Sam says it why not???
Mr. Sam Mellinger says the Royals should sign Raphel Furcal this winter (among other things). To this I say: Well duh. But it isn't going to happen. With the troubles the Dodgers already have at SS with Furcal (oh, yeah, he's hurt - there's a plus) I don't see how they would let him go. And I bet he will be tremendously expensive (in Royals terms).
While it would be nice to have the guy I don't see it happening. The one thing we do have going for us is that he is a former Brave. Yipee.

OT - The Chiefs are Stupid
This is why I'm considering getting rid of my season tickets. What the hell are the Chiefs thinking? You think this is a bad time to implement such a rule? This has put me in a tremendously bad mood. And now, I have to come up with 15 more words so that this deal will be published, so forgive my random combination of words that don't make sense.

Olivo the Great!
A completely unfair comparison (sort of) of the backup catcher from 2007 and backup catcher from 2008.
Jason LaRue (2007): .148/.240/.272, 13 XBH (4 HR, 9 2B), 33 OPS+ in 195 plate appearances.
Salary: $5.2 million (B-R.com – Note: Reds picked up a lot of that contract.)
Miguel Olivo (2008): .261/.302/.494, 24 XBH (9 HR, 15 2B), 100 OPS+ in 189 plate appearances.
Salary: $2.15 million (Cots Baseball Contracts)

I just can't quit you...
At what point to do we quit on Chris Lubanski? Chris is hitting .258/.335/.473, which isn’t bad, but not good either. Lubanski is only 23 and can still become a productive player on some level. Then again, we didn’t even protect him in the Rule 5 Draft (and then no one took him either). Clearly, at this point, Lubanski is no longer a major (or minor) piece in the puzzle, but he is a former fifth overall pick. So what should our expectations be of Lubanski moving forward?
(I have no idea, which is why I'm asking the question.)
