Just In From the Desert

Casey Kotchman

Saddled with discomfort of some very coarse sand in his unnaturally dry vagina, Chris Perez will miss the next 4-6 weeks, putting his availability for Opening Day in question.  Perez pulled a muscle in his left side during his first bullpen session, admitting that he chose to go 100% rather than the 50% or 75% that the training staff recommended.  Noting that he could have chosen to heed medical advice and take it easy on day 1, Perez said "but that's not who I am."  Sheesh.

Vinnie Pestano will close until Pure Rage is ready.

Cheers.
