Brian Anderson update

Sorry to see that, truly. I liked the kid's heart when he played. What he did away from the field was ridiculous; but that was his choice.

What's that? Almost getting goaded into a fight with Jr. and then getting thrown under the bus by Daddy?

OK, so obviously the White Sox, Red Sox, Royals, and Yankees are all just clueless to his greatness and he'll rebound once he finds an organization that recognizes his talent.

He will...and I'm sure that he will flourish and at long last meet his expectations - perhaps exceed them - under the watchful eye and sagely tutelage of the night manager at Home Depot.

Except for the part about being able to hit a breaking ball.

No, chasing tail and boozing it up when he wasn't established as a star. Teams will look the other way if you're an established performer. When you still are proving yourself to the team and you're more focused on the party?

The party is all you're going to have.

The best part about this comment is that it actually was at about 2am at a bar in Lakeview that I met him. Nice guy though.
