Breaking News: GS52 LIVES!!!

No link yet, but Sid just mentioned that George will keep #52 while in Baltimore. Unlike a certain ~$50 million thief (yes, I'm still bitter), George actually respected his new teammate and decided against approaching Jon Leicester about taking #52, and has worn #51 during spring training instead. Today, however, Leicester refused his assignment to AAA and became a free agent, freeing up #52 on the Orioles' available jersey number list.

And George promptly made it unavailable again.

Now we just need to figure out a better Entrance Song than what they rarely played at Safeco last year. I like Sid's suggestion of a Clutch song. Like "The Mob Goes Wild!"

Free At Last, Free At Last!!!!

George Sherrill is FREE!!!

I can't put down in words how incredibly excited I am right now. These past four years have been intense, exciting, frustrating, and fun.

No, Mariners Morsels isn't finished. The design will change, sure, as soon as I get home.

But, finally, and officially, the Free George Sherrill campaign declares VICTORY!!!!

Congratulations, George! You deserve it. I just hope Baltimore has enough ninth-inning leads for you to protect.
