Doctors today found a torn labrum and torn rotator cuff in Boof Bonser’s right shoulder, leading to more extensive repairs than what was first thought.

Bonser is out at least six months, but probably the whole season.

Link-a-dink-a-doo


Well, that may hurt the bullpen. Although he didn't have a good season last year he probably could have been a effective reliever.
I hope we go after Juan Cruz for sure now.

That's too bad for Boof. But it won't affect me much. I plan on engaging in a personal (i.e., one-person) boycott of the Major League baseball season. I may end it at the All-Star game, but in any event, I'm hoping to pay less attention to baseball this year.

I don't think the jerks who have run that league into the ground -- player union and owners -- deserve my interest. And as much as I love the sport, the only way to make a statement that's meaningful to those schmucks is to refrain from watching for a significant time period.

I dont get baseball at all lol:D:D its gets no coverage in ireland lol so i dont know anything about it.

I watch cricket though lol i guess thats somewhat related

Baseball is an awesome sport. But the barons of Major League Baseball have done everything possible to make it unwatchable.

The last time I felt this way was with respect to boxing. I was a HUGE boxing fan as a kid and teenager, and watched it well into my twenties. It's been many years since I've watched a fight, though. I suspect many baseball fans can tell a similar story, or if not now, they will in another decade or so.

Oh yeah -- "Go Yankees." You and the Red Sox seem to be the only teams that MLB care about. And if you win, the absurdity of it all becomes more apparent, so go ahead and win, schmucks.
