Pigs do Fly

Who knew? Matty Mo pitched and bitched his way to the Pirates and Sabean looks like a shrewd horse trader again. Of course, Sabes positively gushed about what a great "get" Morris was a couple years ago. He was a bulldog and a fantastic clubhouse guy that would prove to be more valuable than mere numbers could ever show. I guess that was just before he started questioning the company line. "I am not sure what the goal is here." If Morris didn't understand the 'ride the Bonds gravy train' mentality when he signed his deal he clearly wasn't paying attention. Perhaps he was blinded by the money. He wouldn't be the first player afflicted by that big potato.

Anyhoo, Sabean now has 10 million more bucks to play with this winter. Normally, that is a good thing but Sabes and money burning a hole in his pocket has not been a particularly productive tag team lately.

The Giants have been playing a bit better lately. I have no idea as to why such a thing is occurring but let's not mess it up by questioning good fortune. Since I have been irrevocably tied to this mostly unrequited Giants fan straitjacket type devotion, wins, even few and far between, are always welcomed.

Rajai is a good name...
