Braves sign Derek Lowe to 4 yr/$60 million contract
First it's 33 year old Japanese import Kenshin Kawakami, then it's Lowe. Jair Jurrjens, Javier Vazquez and a fifth starter de jour round out the Braves' rotation. The Braves franchise is apparently still in business, even after the departure of team mainstay John Smoltz.

I wonder if the #5 is Jorge Campillo
That guy tortured the Brewers.

he's in the running apparently...
Charlie Morton, Jo-Jo Reyes and youngster Tommy Hanson are also in the mix

Big Impact Signing
Chris Burke signs with the Padres.
Can’t he be a Cub or something?

blasphemy
I don’t want to have to root against Burke. If he joined the Cubs, I’d have to hate him on principle.

Yeah, but he'd make the Cubs worse
Thus, making the Astros better by comparison. He owes that to us.

Assuming he ever played
But I’d like that.

A good friend of mine used to say, "This is a very simple game. You throw the ball, you catch the ball, you hit the ball. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose, sometimes it rains." Think about that for a while.

How about Mike Lamb?
Anyone see a final good season out of him?
