My job just got a whole lot harder

According to the PG, the Pirates' have just unleashed the blogger's nightmare upon us. I'm talking about the man referred to as "Malphabet" or "The Eye Chart" or my personal favorite, "Doug Mienl;aksdjfl;ajdgfl;adfjl;kajwcz." That's right, Doug Mientkiewicz is coming to Bradenton. It's hard to get worked up over a minor league deal, but with Steven Pearce, Adam LaRoche, Xavier Nady, and Ryan Doumit all on the team, this move is straight out the Department of Redundancy Department. Maybe this move portends a trade and maybe it doesn't, but if the Eye Chart gets to Pittsburgh before Steve Pearce this year, I'm going to scream.
