Cameron gimpy – Newly acquired center fielder Mike Cameron is experiencing some tightness and will probably not participate in the team’s annual “Academic Beat Down” against Northeastern and Boston College.  From the Globe’s description, it seems like your typical minor soreness, the only red flag being Cameron’s age (37).

Bay fires more parting shots – Nothing vicious, just some critique of the way the medical issues were handled by the Red Sox.  Really, the whole thing is playing out like Damon’s departure, only more Canadian (reserved / polite).  On a side note, I wonder if Bay’s programming allowed him to crack a smile when his country won the gold medal in hockey?  Nah, he probably experienced a syntax error.

Gotta love contract years – Josh Beckett: “I would say that I’m more prepared now than I was four years ago”.  Barring injuries, it’s hard to imagine a scenario where the 29-year-old isn’t one of the top 15 starters in the American League this year.

An undead Providence Gray – Those of you who are into Twitter need to be following Old Hoss Radbourn.  The single season win record-holder and Hall of Famer has risen from the grave, and brings his 19th century perspective to us in 140-character nuggets of folksy wisdom.  Really hilarious stuff.
