I'm glad this happened.

I’ve been nervous all offseason knowing that Colon was a free agent. Even if he doesn’t make the big club, he’s a VERY valuable asset to a pitching staff like Omaha’s that has had so many holes in it recently. He can be whatever the team needs – long relief, middle relief, starter, whatever.

He’s also vastly entertaining.

WTF, self?

So he's not on the naughty list?

Nah, despite his sketchy personal history.

He’s more in the “pain in the ass but I’d miss him if he weren’t around” category.

I meant to type “dated a girl like that once,” but I think my subconscious took over.

He got into a locker room fight when he was in the minors in the Tigers organization and I believe the fight ended in the other guy getting very seriously injured.

And I've heard whisperings that he has some

domestic violence in his past. NOT cool.

He might be this year's Fulchino

But he’s more likely going to be this year’s Brad Salmon.

wasn't salmon the guy we had the mystrious trade for

where months later no one could figure out what the other half was?

Yeah, he was one of the mystery trades

I still have no idea who the PTBNL was, or if they just settled on cash.
