Look, 2009 Red Sox, I'm a guy who doesn't need a lot of extra excitement in his life. I make my own excitement, goddam it. When things get boring, I give myself a few good whacks with a car antenna. When they get really boring, I just lower the ol' onions into a deep fryer...

In 2008 Rod Barajas was kind of sharing time at catcher with Greg Zaun, then Zaun got hurt and Cito became manager. Cito grew to really like Rod and once Cito likes a player there is no amount of new information that is going to change his opinion. Rod was incredibly, almost unbelievably...

There isn't that much for Jay news today. The closest to news is Cito suggesting that Rod Barajas likely wouldn't be back next year, so reports ran to ask Rod about it. He wasn't all that happy to hear about it, figuring he could be coming back, that that issue would...
