Winter Meetings update

So we signed a meathead for the bullpen and nobody likes it because he makes too much money or whatever. We don't care. We're still waiting for that Furcal deal to go down.

The Tigers and White Sox are in steep decline (probably). The Twins and Indians aren't made of money. Whatever you think about DM and Glass -- they appear to be going for it, more or less, THIS YEAR. (This year, as in 2009.) As Donnie Baker would say, "I swear to God they are." As a Royals fan, even if you're skeptical of the moves, this has to be a refreshing thing.

Oh, we also resigned HoRam for too much money and probably got a few other guys.

P.S. As Royal Prick noted in the comments section of the previous post, Big Donkeys predicted two weeks ago that Furcal would sign with KC. We'll see. We also predicted the Coco Crisp thing a long time ago, but we don't want to brag.

P.P.S. We're pretty sure Meathead is going to be the subject of a lot of our angst in 09. But that's OK. It'll be fun.
