.312 + 29 HR + 115 RBI + Hot Wife = MVP

Congrats to our man Kevin Youkilis, who got a ring on Sunday, albeit the wrong kind, when he married super hottie Enza Sambataro. If there is anyone out there who still doubts that America is a place where all things are possible, such as looking like a Scandanavian slave driver, and still scoring a major biddy...YES WE CAN. Provided that you're a stud Major League first baseman that is.

SOX NOTES

The Sox are likely out of the race for Matt Holliday. The Rocky Mountain Railer is probably heading to Oakland, where he'll play for two years and then sign with a legitimate team.

Tampa Bay Angel Ray Evan "Don't Call Me Eva" Longoria won the AL Rookie of the Year award even though he bombed in the World Series. He's married to Tony Parker, right?
Chicago catcher Geovany Soto won the NL variety, which will hopefully compensate for the fact that he plays for the Cubs.
Sox coaches DeMarlo Hale and Brad Mills are both candidates for the Seattle job. This is sort of like two corporate vice presidents interviewing for a shift manager's position at Starbucks. And no that was not a geographic joke. I made that quip to signify that the Mariners are a sinking ship, just like the worst coffee maker ever, that also happens to reside in the same town.
Looks like the yuppies will be crying in their double mocha latte expresso chais as the chain took a big (vienti) hit today.
The Herald's Michael Silverman wrote a long, big-worded column today that basically said what we all knew...Julio Lugo sucks.
And in case you missed it, Mo Vaughn was inducted to the Red Sox Hall of Fame this weekend. I think they should name part of the stadium for him a-la Pesky, Fisk and Conigliaro. How about Mo's Munchies, an all-you-can eat buffet filled with all of the donuts, french fries and terrible career choices a fan could ask for?
