Transaction Oracle— A Timely Look at Transactions as They Happen

Red Sox - Signed Bard
Boston Red Sox - Signed C Josh Bard to a 1-year contract worth $2.6 million.
This contract is non-guaranteed, the Red Sox mainly trying to have as many options at catcher as they can, depending on what happens with Jason Varitek. 2008 was essentially a wasted season for Bard as he was recovering from offseason wrist surgery and spent large chunks of the season on DL with a bad ankle sprain (awkward homeplate collision with Pujols), and problems in both the right elbow and triceps. He’ll need to show he’s healthy to have a better offseason next year.

1. Bitter Calculus Instructor Posted: January 08, 2009 at 05:48 AM (#3046071)I bet this Bard has quite a tale.
Hopefully they don't clone Varitek next.
indeed
Well, the clone would have to start out as zero, so just wait 27 years.
Unless the mutations kill or cripple him.
