Mike Cameron giftwrapped

We know Kenny Williams doesn't have much money to spend.

We know Mike Cameron will miss the first month of 2008 due to a PED suspension.

We know San Diego doesn't want him back.  We know Philadelphia doesn't want him.  We know Texas and St. Louis were looking at him.

We know St. Louis has Colby Rasmus waiting to take over sometime this season.

We now know that Texas has picked up Josh Hamilton.

Mike Cameron has few options remaining.  Though he's not an ideal leadoff hitter, the man takes his walks, hits homers, and plays a fine defensive center field.  He could well sign for one or two years at a bargain rate.

Kenny Williams, Mike Cameron is giftwrapped and in the sale bin.  Please pick him up this holiday season.

NOOOOOOOO
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! What do you think it would have taken to trade for him? BTW did anyone hear Bobby Jenk's interview with those 2 knuckleheads eddie and jomo on b96? The interesting part is in fact not the interview but the prelude to it. They were talking about his past and mentioned that the Angels released him because he did "Meth". I thought it was because he brought beer on the bus (something I condone and would do myself)? Once they started interviewing one of the first questions they asked him was "so tell me Bobby how was it doing a Mc Donalds commercial with Zambrano???" One more tid bit... Hazymania are you Matt Abatacola?

looks like it would have taken
gio as the centerpiece. gio is better than volquez, in my opinion, but herrera isn't shaby.

Yea that's a tough one
Josh has shown tremendous potential but I am not sure he is worth giving up our closest major leaguer. I would have had to seen Hamilton do it for a whole season before I trade Gio. Since Josh apparently never took Reagan's advice to "just say no", who knows maybe he started breaking down because he did HGH to get back to the majors.

Let's make John Denver proud!!!
Well, life in my world is kinda laid back
Ain't much to do alone in the sack
'Cept get a real rise out of my mom's rack
Thank God, I'm a Soulja Boy

Well this kinda life never did me no harm
Getting nookie from the horses & pigs on the farm
My days are all filled with a dirty rap charm
Thank God, I'm a Soulja Boy

When the work's all done and my brain's running low
I diddle on my fiddle and I lube up my bow
My parents are asleep so I keep it kinda low
Thank God, I'm a Soulja Boy

I'd play with myself all day if I could
But my granny sharin' the bed wouldn't take it very good
So I fiddle when I can, work on my wood
Thank God, I'm a Soulja Boy

Matt Abatawhatta?
Not according to my driver's license, though I bet his name is a hoot to say when friends introduce him at parties.
I'll hang up and listen to your answer.

I see SoB's clever retort
was removed.

Na na na na, na na na na, hey hey, goodbye?

Agreed, and
as Tooner proves, brings out the best in others.

This makes too much sense now...
The Atlanta Braves are probably interested in Cameron though.  Their outfield is pretty decimated.

Sign Cameron and use Ramirez as a fallback option at 2B.
