Mister Brad Rad, To You Main BlogBall Well, Batgirl was entirely remiss yesterday in not posting that the Twins signed one CJ Nitkowski, late of the Braves and the Yanks, to a minor league deal . The signing is interesting for a number of reasons, as beloved, if misguided, Batling Shoeless Joe writes in the comments: Shoeless Joe came to Bat-Girl for witty and informative insight into the Twins' signing of lefty reliever CJ Nitkowski (of the Sheboygan Nitkowski, I believe, not the Appleton Nitkowskis). And there is nothing, nothing! You should be concerned about this signing. Not you as a Twins fan. You as a blogger. Nitkowski has his own Web site - www.cjbaseball.com - and post content from time to time. Please note - Mr. Nitkowski's web site is superior to Bat-Girl in at least one respect. It offers fans the existential choice of "Baseball" or "Christianity." Forgive me Jesus, but I love baseball. In other hard-to-spell news, the saga of Doug Mientkiewicz continues. Dougie Baseball, meet Mr. Met. AND, speaking of Mets, Al Leiter has designed this adorable teddy bear to raise funds for Save the Children's Tsunami relief. Should no one buy it, the Mets plan to pay the stuffed bear $17 million to play the outfield next year. | |
