Well, so much for this morning's meeting. As he set the time for it etc. and is looking for something for nothing upfront I think waiting on the "line" for half an hour is adequate; we'll see if that gets re-scheduled or not. But really value my time why doncha?

The top-secret MN Burning Man Decompression camp-out meeting was sparsely but enthusiastically attended. Further details will be noted as they come. Did find a pretty good bar close to the studio space and got to see the end of yet another Giants loss; glad I was wearing a Yankee shirt among the Green Bay gear.

Marlins signed Reyes for a lot of money. Can't say that was a surprise to anyone although one of these days some GM is going to learn that long-term contracts for speed guys who are already prone to leg injuries is bad magic. Oh, Davey Collins, I'm *still* talking to you.

Someone just called him "poo-holes" and someone is going to sink a lot of money into that grumpy, young man too. The smart money is on the Cards; bad news for the champs should he move to the Cubs. With a new manager that teams needs his "leadership" such as it is.

And if you think Cashman is really satisfied going into 2012 with that starting rotation then you're really not paying attention. Someone must be crazy enough to take AJ Burnett off our hands. If Vernon Wells can get traded you'd think a guy who can eat innings would be worth the risk, right? Right?

Snow falls...

Cheers,
Brian
