Did you see this little item in the paper today? Our man Hideki Okajima is running in the Honolulu marathon on Sunday, and the Red Sox are "not pleased" and "would have discouraged him" had they been informed of his plan to do this.
Really? I dunno, I'm not a runner, nor have I ever been a runner, but dude! he doesn't have to even think about throwing a baseball for another two months. Isn't that enough time to recover from a marathon? And isn't having been training for a marathon, apparently, for the past six or eight weeks better than if he'd been sitting home drinking too much sake and watching tentacle porn (or whatever it is those Japanese guys do when they're in uber-party mode)? Are we afraid he's going to trip, fall, and land on his pitching shoulder? You can do that from drinking too much sake too, and too much tentacle porn could always lead to, y'know, other arm overuse.
So, Mr Okajima, I'm behind you all the way! Hope you finish.
xoxo
