Pickoff Moves

OT: Congratulations, Matt Welch

Though he hasn't posted this in his blog, he did stop by via an e-mail advertising his latest Reason column that he's now an assistant opinion editor at the Times. Now, is that to keep him shut up, or to give him a voice? Congratulations... I think.

Update: Matt expands on this:

I'll be helping shape the section; editing and writing both columns and editorials, hopefully bringing some new voices to paper, and cooking up new schemes in the steamrooms under Spring Street. I'll have the pleasure of working for a smart editor I have a great deal of faith in, Andres Martinez.
What a great piece of news. The Times editorial section has demanded an overhaul lo these many, and while I doubt Matt is going to be in a position to give it the gentle kick in the ass it actully deserves, it's a step in the right direction. Hells yeah, as Richard might say.

Rich Lederer Interviews Ex-Dodger Prospect Chuck Tiffany

And there really aren't too many surprises:

Rich: As a Dodger fan growing up, how did it feel to be drafted by your hometown team?

Chuck: It was a childhood dream. I grew up in the city and had always watched them play. I was really excited about everything and was shocked when they traded me. It's now just a new chapter in my life that I have to open up.

Dodgers End Pursuit Of Bengie Molina, Other Roster Notes


Comments:
I'm a big Percy fan, but command wasn't always his strength. And he "barely" had 3 pitches. I hope he can be a setup guy, cause starting could get really ugly.
 
Geez, I thought Percy's career was over. He can barely pitch 50 innings in a season. Starter? Well, at least he has cojones...
 
Wow, that's a strong negotiating position: If you don't give me six million, I'll take zero.
 
At this exact moment, I am making as much money playing baseball as Bengie Molina. Woot!
