WHERE HAVE YOU GONE CHAD PICASNER... ??

It's been three days since my last rant. Sorry, but is it Chad's fault that things are slow? We have to scrape past the bottom of the barrel for anything.

***OF COURSE, THERE'S ALWAYS SCOTT***
Boras is insisting that Manny gets a six year contract. Why? Because Bonds and A-Rod both got deals that takes them to age 42. The only thing Manny led the league in last year was dreadlocks. So if he wants to emulate those two, he better start applying "the clear" or take up with Madonna. "The clear" is probably safer.

***SPEAKING OF A-ROD...***
Reports out of New York are that A-Rod has told Cynthia, his ex, that he's "going thru a phrase" and to please wait for him. Apparently, "phrase" means Madonna and usually she's the one who does the 'going through'. This is like the ballplayer who was asked, "What's the toughest thing is sports?" "Explaining to your wife why "she" needs penicillin for "your" kidney infection," he said. Alex, do you really think this will work? There's 50 million guys waiting to find out.

***DID HELL JUST FREEZE OVER?***
Billy Beane, Oakland A's, just made a trade to GET a big star. Beane, who is the poster child for United Dump Trucks, always gets rid of stars, not acquire them. Cashman must have slipped him a mickey at the GM meetings. Hey Boras, there's another phone number to add to your speed dial.

Free agents are not allowed to talk to other teams until Friday, so things will be quiet till this weekend. Picasner's on the case, boys and girls.
