The two highest paid outfielders on the Mets payroll are Jason Bay and Bobby Bonilla. Jason Bay plays for the Mariners, and Bonilla retired in 2001. You read that right.

The highest paid pitcher for the Mets is Johan Santana, who just had shoulder surgery (again), is out for the season, and probably won't play for the Mets anymore if and when he gets healthy.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Do you know the song I Hate Everyone by Ordinary World, msbelle? I really like to listen to that loud when I am in that kind of mood.

It's Scola Day? Many happy returns, Tom!

Because books.

Happy birthday, Tom!

I thought I heard that Santana's career may be over.

His contract with the Mets is up after this year, and I doubt the Mets would resign him even if he could play.

Happy birthday, Tom! I hope it's a good year.

At this point, I'm not sure the Mets would be able to sign me. Should be an interesting season.

The A's haven't signed anyone to a multi-year mega contract since Eric Chavez and his last few contract years sucked. My biggest issue is with the A's owners. They are so concentrated on moving the team and putting money into that effort that no money goes onto the field. Yes, I'm bitter.

Happy Birthday, Scola. May the day have you blinding people with your wonderful smile.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Happy birthday, Tom!
