Hanging out the sunroof like 'bing, bing, bing'.


Heard through the grapevine Machado to Twins? Um, WRONG! Alejandro's been signed by the Nationals for about two weeks now and I cannot believe I missed this. He was originally in their system so I guess it's somewhat of a homecoming. Jermaine Van Buren's down there, too, so they can reminisce over milkshakes about the glory of Pawtucket, RI.

I had a big crush on Alejandro... he's like the sweetest guy, ask anyone. He was not a power hitter, but I think he did a pretty good job fielding and getting on base. I happened to be at Fenway for his first ever hit with the big team. I will miss him at McCoy.

JVB... I didn't like him at first, but I got used to his whiplash pitching style. He was, like Machado, one of the nicest guys on the PawSox in '06. Decent to the kids and that.

A brief note about Corky Miller: gone to Atlanta Braves. Fun while it lasted.
