And He's Not Kidding

After yanking everyone's chain (no pun intended), Roger Clemens has finally made a decision about what he wants to in life, and judging by this opening line you should be able to tell what he wants to do: he wants to be a Yankee...again. Yeah, that's right. The crowd at Yankee Stadium received a nice lil' treat during the seventh-inning stretch, as Clemens announced his plans of becoming a "bomber" again. Honestly, I could really care less. After all, he gave the Red Sox 13 solid years, spent a little time with the Astros; but he's won championships with the Yankees. And they desperately need the pitching. Last I checked they're the only team in the history of the sport to have used 10 different starters in their first 30 games of the season. Yes, TEN. In the first THIRTY games of the season. Ridiculous. And Carl Pavano's career as a Yankee is pretty much over, as he'll probably have Tommy John surgery and be out for 8 million years. Well, he got his bang for his buck.

Somebody please tell me where on earth J.J. Hardy came from? It may be kind of messed up, but I had no idea who this guy was before the past month. Hell, I thought he was a rookie. And I'm thinking that has a whole lot to do with the fact that he was drafted by and plays for the Brewers. But hey, don't laugh; the Brewers are one of the top 2 teams in baseball right know, with my beloved Red Sox being the other (so much for being impartial). As of today, Hardy is batting .339 with 8 hr and 26 RBI. You can thank Wikipedia for that.
