I Saved Latin, What the Hell did You Ever Do?

The first Rocco Report of the spring! Rocco's in camp doing (and saying) Rocco-type things. Though he was only ranked as the 20th most important on the Sox roster by the Boston Globe, any team that employs brittle Seminole JD Drew and bitter semi-old guy Mark Kotsay is going to need all the outfield help they can get. Though it seems Rocco is taking it slow, exempting himself from certain conditioning exercises.

Rocco needs all our support, as he's down one key backer these days. I understand where our friend David Chalk is coming from; he's a Ray through and through. Rocco walked away from Tampa, and he left David's love behind. That's okay, he'll always be welcome around here.

Other stuff

• Those covetous bastards at 3:10 to Joba are making eyes at Roy Halladay. So is a guy that willfully writes about the Colorado Rockies. My rage knows no bounds.
  
• Jordan Bastian convinced Cito to rosterbate along with the rest of us. I shouldn't have to suggest that it's waaayy too early in the spring for this. But I guess that means Travis Snider makes the team? Note to Cito: leading off with Johnny Mac is probably worse than using Corey Patterson. Just sayin.
  
• I actually wrote something for Walkoff Walk, my first in weeks. And I included Brett Cecil! Check it out, I make fun of the KLAW!
