Red Sox Rockin' Round the Calendar

And around the Christmas tree. The Sox unwrapped a nice Christmas player with second baseman Pokey Reese, who turned down bigger contracts elsewhere to come to the Sox. After seven years in Cincinatti and Pittsburgh, the Poke wants to be part of the greatest show on earth: the Boston Red Sox. That's more of what we need: athletic guys who are excited to play ball and are earning almost half their salary in performance bonuses. And less of what we don't need: A-Rod, the ultimate overpaid prima donna sports star.
