Musings for a Shiny Thursday

Trevor Hoffman has decided to take his "Hells Bells" theme song and 554 career saves to Beer Land, agreeing to a one year deal with the Brew Crew today. I guess he's really a big fan of sausage after all. Laverne and Shirley will be proud.

The Blue inked Yhency Brazoban and 14 others today to minor league contracts, most of whom I've never heard of (which would have been perfect for the team when they took the names off the back of the uniforms for two years), and invited them to spring training. So, for six weeks, these guys get to play in meaningless games with and against other guys whom most people have never heard of. Then, they can return to their day jobs as grocery baggers and parking lot attendents.

Speaking of which, the head honcho of parking lots and the woman who spends his money were named as L.A's power couple by the Los Angeles Business Journal Tuesday because of the team's success in light of their first trip to the NLCS since Ronald Reagan was still in office, and for their work in the community. Frankly (no pun intended), the only person in L.A. who got excited over this was the local Four Letter Network radio guy, Steve Mason, who is still oogling over Hot Legs Jamie to dump the head honcho for him.
