I think that would be a nice pick-up.  He can platoon with Varitek
behind the plate and DH on his off days.  He has a nice bat with an OPS
near 900, 15 HRs and 67 RBIs.  This in a relatively crappy Cleveland
lineup.
 
Any word on who is in the trade?

                And our country is now 233 years old.  How long was it
before the Roman Empire began its decline and can you make an argument
that our society will accelerate that decline based upon instantaneous
communication worldwide and streamlined methods of moving food and
people?

                Good point.

                Let's not flatter ourselves on a Romanesque decline.
They lasted over 400 years.

                Not sure it is surprising.  Combine huge differences in
million dollar
                salaries based on performance, with lax testing,
enforcement and weak
                penalties.  Overlay flawed human nature and this is what
you get.
                
                What I am interested in is: what gives some folks the
moral conviction
                not to cheat?  This is an issue common in so many
endeavors--Wall St.,
                politics, etc.  Sometimes, I think we are in the early
stages of
                Romanesque decline.
