Red Sox sign Brad Penny

by SC on Dec 30, 2008 1:06 AM EST in Hot Stove Comment 32 comments

The Boston Red Sox and pitcher Brad Penny reached a preliminary agreement on a $5 million, one-year contract, according to several reports Monday.
The team also struck a tentative agreement with catcher Josh Bard and both deals are pending physicals, the reports said.

Cheap and one season removed from being one of the National League's most effective pitchers. Meanwhile we fart about with the likes of Mark Hendrickson.

Is that

Alyssa Milano?? My eyes are not great, but I think that might be the former ’Who’s the Boss’ star herself. I can’t wait to see Mark Hendrickson vs Brad Penny…and again we get the short end, fuck!!

She’s a sportsfan from way back and has apparel deals with the NFL for chick oriented merchandise.

she's a well known ballplayer-chaser

and the two did date, so it seems likely

So being a ballplayer is like being in a band?

She is no longer dating baseball players. Something about them being immature.

Milano dating baseball players

Googled around. Found this.

The actress who has sworn off dating baseball players, because
they are too childish?

It’s Alyssa Milano… Alyssa admits she is a huge fan of the sport,
and even dreams of being a star slugger.

But, after dating San Francisco Giants pitcher Barry Zito, Los
Angeles Dodgers pitcher Brad Penny and Atlanta Braves star Tom
Glavine, she’s determined to date more mature men, like her
current mystery beau, known only as "David."

Alyssa says, "They are grown men playing a little boy’s sport.
That makes them childish."

The last line cracks me up. Translate: They become bored very easily and move on to other women.

Knows only

I dunno

With Manny gone, Papi probably needed someone to latch onto…

My best game plan is to sit on the bench and call out specific instructions like 'C'mon Boog,' 'Get ahold of one, Frank,' or 'Let's go, Brooks.' -Earl Weaver

Has anyone ever seen

the clip of Manny on the Sox sitting next to Julian Tavarez and affectionately stroking his head. The announcers can’t contain their laughter, it’s a must see!! Try the link below.

Tom Glavine?

Seriously? Ewwww.

I like her quote because let’s be serious, Alyssa is dating beneath herself in the looks department with all those guys (even Zito), and I refuse to accept she was dating guys that light each others’ feet on fire to keep spirits loose because she thought they were going to be mature, stable fellows.

That is the rookie card to end all rookie cards

Dude couldn’t make sure his teeth weren’t brown before he got his pictures taken? Then again, he was a hockey player back in the day. They’re not exactly big on dental care.

That looks like the shit

that is left from unkept braces. Damn Tom, seriously bro!! Alyssa Milano went for that, really?? I should be dating Jessica Alba if the bar has been set so low.
