        Good

        Wakefield must be doing cartwheels.

            Great move by the Red Sox.

              Very good move, imo.

              Bard just wasn't getting it...they have have Lester, Delcarmen and Hansen who the Sox FO is more enamored with...and the Sox have the cash to add in.

                As Theo said, they havn't made a transaction in the last 3 years that the Yankees havn't been involved in.

                  Mirabelli gets off the plane at 6:48 and makes it from Logan Airport to Fenway Park in 12 minutes (with a police escort) and was in the starting lineup. Welcome back Doug!.

                    How long would it typically take to get from Logan to Fenway?

                      No traffic it's only about a 15-20 minute drive. With gameday traffic, it would probably be more like 30-45 minutes.

                        an excerpt from Deadspin.com on Doug Mirabelli:


                        For those of you who haven’t quite had your fill of Doug Mirabelli, Knuckleball Savior, we gleefully present a brilliant thread on the infamous Sons Of Sam Horn board, in which a poster, inspired by an old posting, imagines what most have been going through the he-man mind of Mirabelli as he made his way from the Padres to Fenway Park.

                        7:02 am PDT: Awoken at home by phone call from Kevin Towers. Learns he’s traded to Boston. Calls Towers a pickle smoker and tells him San Diego is for ******* anyway.
                        7:05 : Takes 40 naked cuts in front of a mirror.
                        7:07: Packs a duffel bag with 10 tank tops, 5 pairs of tight jeans, and no underwear. Announces “Dougie’s going commando” to no one in particular.
                        7:08: Kills it.
                        7:10: Calls Wake, tells him “Dougie’s going deep tonight!” Wake says it’s getting dusty in here. Dougie calls him a pantywaist.
                        7:15: Takes cologne shower. Uses Stetson.

                        Man, we should have learned how to catch a knuckleball. We might have been manlier.
