Glad I stayed up and watched the ninth. Was considering turning it off since they were 0-49 when trailing after the eigth, ouch.

What'd you think of the Alex Rios aquisition? I'm glad we didn't have to give anything up for him besides his salary. Should allow some of the vets to get a few days off here and there or if Quentin goes down again.

I think we are in good shape as far the salary is concerned. Rios is due about 70million over the next 5 years I think. It definately complicates the outfield for us, but with CQ injury prone, Rios could take his spot. I would hate to see Pods or JD leave. We have a some guys with contracts that end next year, so who knows what will happen.
