Around SBN: Interview With UMD Athletic Director, Dr. Debbie Yow

Tough Day

Blogging while sick is not fun; blogging while sick and serving jury duty is really not fun. I probably won't get to posting anything else until tomorrow. Sorry if you've sent me an email recently; it may be a day or two before I get to it.

As I'm sure you've heard by now, Peter Gammons is reporting that Rocco Baldelli is set to sign with the Red Sox. Also, Kevin McClatchy has left the Bucs entirely.

I made most of my life decisions at a Foghat concert... I stand by them.

Dumatrait News

Dumatrait has had an injury-plagued and very medicore career to date.

My guess is that the Pirates would be looking at a $400-450,000 salary for him for 2009.

I will be very surprised if he ever throws 100 major league innings over the rest of his career.

I would not think that he is a very tradeable commodity, but I certainly think that the Pirates have enough major league arms now that they do not have to waste their time on rehabbing Dumatrait.

Get well soon

Why not get excused from jury duty?

Thanks, you two. I couldn’t get out of jury duty for the same reason that I can’t stop writing about the Pirates—I’m too principled and stupid.

Charlie, There's Nothing Wrong With Being Too Principaled ...

… however, being too stupid is another matter.

But I think that you are being much too hard on yourself.
