***SABATHIA***
He's sitting at home working out by counting his money. Picasner hopes he's in shape when it comes time to drag his 250 lb butt to Tampa. Or is it 290 lbs? Or 311 lbs? I hope the Yanks have a 'relaxed-fit' uniform for him.
***VARITEK***
Jason is huddling with Scott Bore-us, sifting his offers from...NOBODY! When Coletti of the Dodgers heard Varitek was looking for 2-3 years, he couldn't hang up fast enough to hide the laughter. In spite of what Scott says, the Red Sox have NOT made any offer to Varitek.
***MANNY***
Manny is also huddling with Scott, sifting HIS offers from...NOBODY! Scott, are you picking up on the pattern here? In the meantime, Manny is working out by watching cartoons and playing video games (by his own admission). Should help in your next career: Change boy at Chucky Cheese. Actually, Manny does have an ace in the hole. He's threatened to retire (Note: not a typo). Manny, the Batavia Muckdogs need a pinch hitter.
***PETTITTE***
Cashman flew to Texas and basically told Andy: Sabathia, Wang, Burnett and Chamberlain. $10 Million for one year, take it or leave...SOON. Ben Sheets is next on the radar.
***THE METS***
They have Putz as set-up, K-Rod to close. Now, after Santana, they need someone to get to the 8th inning the other 4 games. Maines seems to get hurt a lot, Perez is leaving, Pedro can't reach home plate from the Assisted Living compound, and Pelfry is okay (for a NL team). So it's - "Johann Santana and get a bandanna". I don't see them doing too well with this roster.
