My Thoughts on the Bartolo Colon Acquisition
Today, Bartolo Colon arrived at Sox camp ready to eat. I can’t believe no one else wanted to sign this guy for only 1.2 million for 1 year, plus the cost of food. I guess they couldn’t afford the cost of food. Well, luckily the Red Sox are rich because I like this acquisition, especially if the Sox get into some sort of hot dog eating contest to settle a tied rain-shortened game or something.
I’m even thinking of replacing David Wells with Colon at pitcher on my All-Time Red Sox Greatest Eaters Team. Anyway, I’m looking forward to seeing Colon do some post-game eating at Spring Training to see what he’s really got. I wonder if he likes raw turkey necks like I do.
Happy feasting,
Big Pupi

Hi Big Pupi,
I have been remiss in checking your site (or is it in NOT checking your site) for the past few weeks. But I haven’t checked other sites, either.
In fact, I didn’t know that the Red Sox got Bartolo Colon until I saw your blog. I agree that Colon must be a big eater, and in a year or two he will rival Rich Garces for the title of Biggest Red Sox Ever.
