Ha, had a feeling I was forgetting someone important! CC's AL WAR over the last three seasons is 11.9, so he should be seventh on the three-year cumulative list.

CC is at 16.4 including his NL stint in 2008.

I always his mound visits go something like:

COACH: keep your mechanics together, attack inside with your fast ball, off speed away, and we'll beat this guy.

LESTER. Right. Thanks for coming out here; I need every bit of advice I can get on how to beat the batter... I mean, I beat cancer, but this pitching thing... oh wait, I'm awesome at that, too. So how bout you get your FAT ASS back in the dugout?

not that he has an attitude I'm aware of. But he could and totally get away with it - at least with me.

I don't understand the point of trading for Halladay and not keeping Lee - it's like they had a 2010 sports car with 25000 miles on it and traded it in for one with 50000 miles on it - its pretty much the same car. now if you had both cars, you'd be a tough guy... with two of the same car, but whatever.

I wouldn't exactly say I love Lester but I am definitely more fond of him than I am of most other Red Sox. I'll take Lee over Lester but it's close.

Word verification: hyper. I am amused :D
