Around the Horn

Some quick updates from around Baseball that Yankee fans may be interested in:

-Chien Ming Wang is fielding multiple offers, with the Nats emerging as a leading candidate

-The reason why Johnny Damon hasn’t signed a deal by now is that he’s holding out for a 2-year deal, according to Fox Sports’ John Morosi.

-Peter Abraham posts, Curt Schilling responds, and Pete answers back. What drama. It’s amazing anyone gets any work done in Boston with captivating stuff like this going on.

-The Yanks officially nix the Joba Rules. The training wheels are off, no more excuses.

-Earl Bloom of the OCR takes a light-hearted look at what might go wrong for the 2010 Yanks in a series of captions to various pix. I will agree on one thing, age could be a huge issue.

-How soon fans forget one pitcher had a 5.22 ERA as a starter. Joba’s ERA as a Starter has been a much more respectable 4.18 despite the way he’s been jerked around.

-No, sweetie.  Of course I won’t.

    The butting of heads was inevitable. The rest of the Boston media suffers Schilling like that cranky uncle whom you still love because he’s family. Abraham devoted blog entries to whining about the jingoism of singing God Bless America during the seventh inning stretch. No doubt the first of many such tussles.
