Oh, how nice. I stuck around campus for three hours and then headed to Psych, only to find a note stuck in the door announcing that the class had been cancelled. I could have used that time to go to the bank to see about that loan. Oh, well.

In other news, Julian Tavarez is starting tonight. My plans for the evening just changed completely. I shall do my algebra now and reward myself with a visit to the bar and much ensuing amusement at Tavarez's expense.

This, of course, means that Boomer has been traded, likely to the Padres, and that makes me sad but I wish him the best of luck and I'm glad he'll get to finish out his career (probably) with a team that is not actively imploding.

As white flags go, though, damn. Trading Boomer, starting Tavarez - it makes the Farnsworth trade look like a subtle hint. I'm actually looking forward to the rest of this season, because that is precisely the sort of sense of humor I have.

Oh, it is ON! Roy Halladay doesn't stand a CHANCE! :)

He's gonna look pretty silly throwing all those pitches right across the plate without even touching our bats! Tavarez'll have to show him how it's done!

Can you BELIEVE it? ROFL

I KNOW WHAT.

!Tek and !Boomer should have a last talk, I think.

[catslash.livejournal.com]

Agreed. I'll be around tonight either during the last part of the game (I really only want to watch Tavarez start) or after (if it somehow becomes fascinating).

Wait...Farnsworth trade? Did I miss something?

I meant the one last year. Trading away our best reliever/closer was a pretty clear sign that the FO had no faith in the '05 team. It caused some behind-the-scenes drama, too.

This is sort of like if they had done that, and then blown up Comerica Park.

OHHHHH *nods understandingly* sorry got a little confused there

Good riddance to Boomer. Now he can go be miserable about being a Padre. And I will probably start calling him Fat Psycho again.

Julian Tavarez? Starting? Did I smoke crack before I read that?
