Tossed around like a Vegas hooker.
It’s been one strange trip for Greg Maddux in his golden years in the league. Chicago to LA to San Diego to LA in the span of three seasons? Come on, the poor guy just wants to play for a contender. Is that too much to ask? At least he has some competitive juices left in his 80-year-old body. Just compare Maddux to that clown Brian Giles. Guy has NO chance of winning by staying in San Diego and he turns DOWN an offer to play with the reigning World Champs? You stay in the NL West and fucking love it, buddy. Like my old high school teacher said: aim low, get results.
As for Maddux, he’ll try and add some pitching firepower to team tied for first place. I might hate Los Angeles with an abnormal passion, but the Dodgers have Manny AND Nomah playing for them now, plus Derek Lowe. That’s 2.5 members of the Red Sox 2004 championship team right there, so the hate lessens. Anyways, Happy Trails Greg! Enjoy that intense Dodger Stadium atmosphere. Just remember not to get too mad at Manny when he costs you approximately 30 unearned runs in your next five starts.
