At this point you have to assume that the Oakland Colesium is located over an old Native American burial ground or Billy Beane came into the possesion of the Tiki doll from the Brady Bunch and won’t let it go.

Or perhaps Rich Harden was created by Gepetto out of balsa wood and got turned into a real, yet shoddily constructed, real boy by a drunken Blue Fairy.

I’d like to be paid $1.5MM to not play baseball this year.

This would be a good trick Jeopardy question:

“I’ll taken ‘Lost potential due to injury’ for $1000 Alex.”

“This former Oakland A’s player hasn’t had a healthy season he’s able to complete for years and has even been injured before the season starts.”

“Who is Eric Chavez?”

“No, sorry the correct response was, ‘Who is Rich Harden?’”

To paraphrase Esquire circa 1973, “Why is this man smiling?”

Aaron, I would bet you a Cherry Coke Zero that you wrote paragraphs 1, 4 and 5 a long time ago and were just waiting to fill in the specifics before you copy-pasted this into HBT.

I’m starting the annual when-is-Mike-Hampton-shut-down-for-the-year pool if anyone wants in.

Looks to me like he’s faking the injury just to get a chance at that frozen yogurt he appears to be holding. Someone should let him know that if Sanchize can eat a hot-dog on the sidelines he can certainly eat Yogen-Fruz in the dugout without needing to go on the DL.

Well this type of shocking news should certainly trump that little thing about Miguel Cabrera…
