294+230= A Very Fat Bullpen

Big news in the City of Angels today. ESPN is reporting that the Lake Show and LO have agreed to terms on a 4 year, $33 million contract. The Lakers are, once again, the favorites in the West--in my eyes. Had Kupchak and Dr. Buss failed to sign LO, the Spurs would have been the pick to win it. The Lakers will enter the preseason much improved, and everyone's favorite to repeat. I really can't wait to see Artest and Garnett go at it next year.

In other news, the Dodgers got some much needed help for the bullpen in acquiring George Sherrill. The Blue Crew sent Steven Johnson and Josh Bell to the Orioles in return for the Flat-Billed Fatapuss. Many people will remember Sherrill from the 2008 all star game. His unique delivery, robust frame, and 2.40 ERA will set up for Baby Brox, creating what is sure to be the heaviest bullpen duo in the history of professional baseball-- their combined weight: 524 pounds.
