Dear Mr. Sabean, I hear you have a reputation of being stupid. Want to deal Lincecum or Cain? You can pick THREE of these 4 players for either: Borowski, Dellucci, Blake, Byrd.

Grady’s already had 2 of the past 3 days off… why DH him? He HATES DHing, if I’m remembering his past comments right.

Pretty much. It’s funny, we took our relatives from Italy down to Toronto a couple weekends ago, and they quickly realized that when you eavesdrop of the conversations of others, NO ONE speaks English. It’s pretty hilarious. They basically stay in Toronto because they have some distant relative or some distant family friend who lives in the city, or they’re from a country which has a decent-sized community in Toronto. Which is pretty much every country in the world. When the soccer u-20 championships were in Toronto last summer, every participating country filled half the stadium with its local countrymen.

Hey, Chuck. And maybe Mario. I have this ongoing debate with my friend:
He wants to order an off brand, foreign made, version of proscar (finasteride) from an online, Indian pharmacy, quarter it, and take it to prevent hair loss. He says the risk is minimal at the most.
I think he might be insane. Thoughts?

Well if it’s safe or whatever, it’s the same thing as propecia just without a prescription. His argument is that propecia is a silly thing to need a prescription of anyway if you’re healthy.
