JUST IN- Scut scoots away. And we get… um… somebody?
So. Um. Just in. We’re. Um. Scut-less. We better get a great pitcher. A GREAT one. We traded with… let’s see… the Rockies. So a great pitcher would be… Oh. Right.
Crap.

Update- hearing it’s Clayton Mortensen. Clay Mortensen. Okayyyyy.
Let’s meet you, courtesy of Wikipedia.
On the night of 2 October 2009, Mortensen was arrested on suspicion of drunken driving and spent the night in the Santa Clara County jail.
Okay.
Um. Anyone else feel another beer and chicken joke coming?
Oh no. Don’t read this article on a Rockies loss in June. It sounds too dejavuzy. You will shudder and have Bard-bad-streak-flashbacks. Here’s an excerpt.
Clayton Mortensen, at this moment the saddest man in Colorado, was muttering to himself as he trudged to the Rockies’ dugout.
His shoulders sagged. His right arm was hanging low. He kept talking, with himself as the only audience, as he approached his teammates.
Oh no.
Oh no.
Well that leaves another nice big hole for the old town team.Are the Pittsburg Pirates now Larry L and Bennie C’s mentors ??????
Boy Theo stared them down and they caved.
This overated idiot in a gorilla suit has placed them in a small market mentality with his hideous contracts .
Making room for Hanley Ramirez? Serlin Castro as Theo’s compensation?
More likely Roy Oswalt
Sigh
Wait, the headline says we got somebody. Who? I mean, surely you weren’t referring to the drunk guy…………
We are going to have a sad team full of nobody worth mentioning. And Pedroia.
Sad face.
And Youkilis. Because they’re not getting rid of Youkilis. No. They’re not doing that. No.
Let’s all drink to Clayton…wait, was that not appropriate?
