Respect the Tek: We are eating chicken parm tonight in your honor, Dougie, and if you're ever in our neck of the woods the drinks are on us.

We'll always have Dougie's head on a stick.

Who will replace him?

Nothing improves a post about Doug Mirabelli quite like exclamation points!

No, really!

Doug Mirabelli Appreciation Night planned for next month.

A win's a win, but, uh, oh

Kristen is forced to admit that Mirabelli is a stud, but she is worried this morning:

... In fact, I would rather be packed into a crowded T in 98 degree weather with eight thousand drunk Yankee fans on "Don't Shower For Luck Day" then deal with so much uncertainty in the Wakefield-occupied part of our pitching rotation. ...

Jennifer Garrett, however, is loving the thought of Big Papi stealing second.

Returning to the Doug-as-studmuffin theme, Beth writes that a city beset with Big-Dig and heat woes needed Mirabelli last night:

... I personally believe that Dougie's Stud Bomb saved possibly as many as two workplaces from shootings tomorrow, and at least a half dozen road rage deaths. ...

And just in time to catch Wakefield tonight.

Bruce has some details. Sounds like a fair trade: Bard, cash and a couple of people you've never heard of. Now if only the Sox can actually score for Wakefield.

Amy on Pasquinade: God, Shiva, Puppies, Cute Babies and all that is good in this world unite in a chorus of thanks

Evan Brunelle, though, calls the deal a panic move by Theo:

... Basically we trade a young catcher who was doing pretty good with the stick save for his power outage, and a young reliever, plus cash or a PTBNL, all because he was doing exactly what Doug Mirabelli did when he first caught Tim Wakefield. ...
