he never "sucked", per se

he had a few down years and his ERA was a bit high, but he’s had a ton of wins and a ton of innings.

he’s actually been pretty solid, with this year being his “spectacular” year

S-Rod on the bench

I like the guy. It’s not clear he has a future in the organization, but I really like his OBP.

At this point I like S Rod > Wood.

Although Wood has been rakin’ good (but so has S rod)

The scouts

seem to prefer Wood over S-Rod because of the former’s track record and crazy homers in 2005, but I’m not so sure. S-Rod is supposed to be the better defender.

I used to "live" in Scotland for a while.

When I worked in Irvine, Scotland, I pretty much lived in the Manor Park hotel in Monkton.

I was at the bar every night. Had every drink they served. Even ate Haggis. Heard all their ghost stories.

I don’t want to go back there.
