Clemens In, Clijsters Out

I know, I know. Our pitching stinks. I know we need help. I know I should be popping champagne (maybe I'll do that anyway, this Is a food blog too). I know everyone hates me for hating him. His family "pretty much" signed off on this, he says. Hmm. Sounds like others might not be celebrating either. Either way, a certain 44-year old will be on the mound in pinstripes, maybe in as little as 2 weeks. Food item: when teased/complimented that he's Not been eating pizza (by announcer Michael Kay) Clemens agreed that he is near playing weight. also, he'd rather have a glass of red wine (for its health benefits) than sweat it out (for the health benefits) throwing to a bunch of kids. so he's not going to help out a batting practice? or he's not going to waste energy on lesser players? sounds like a real team player, huh? Tennis tennis tennis: "I'll put my rackets in their cupboard," said Kim Clijsters on her Website, prompting me to send her an email asking what food is in that cupboard. Start your timer...how long will it take her to respond?
