Kind of rubbing it in the other players faces.

Milligan is now the dough boy..

Pro Gardening Tip: When preparing to grow your own tomatoes, you’ll need to consider the importance of soil. Most pro gardeners will tell you that the best soil for tomatoes is a sandy loam. Once you’ve mastered the soil and have successfully grown your own tasty tomatoes, just remember not to dwell too long on the realization that you just spent 3 months of your life to save $2.50…

But his wallet seems to be doing just fine

…until he gets an injury and sits on the bench the rest of the season….getting his salary…..

Dang – that left fielder is sure playing shallow!

Pitcher’s mound of cash.

I have not been that impressed with these playoffs. Too many errors, not much hitting, has pitching gotten that much better? Have they invented new techniques I’m not familiar with? Too much money for the players is for sure!

He’s earning his money however…..
