Twas the week before Christmas and all through the land
Every GM was stirring, each with a plan.
The Dodgers got Furcal and placed him at short
The Mets got a handful and more to report
Relief pitchers got rich, oh much richer than deserved
And wait til they blow saves as 2006 will observe
But my team sits idly, well not too idly bye.
There have been constant stirrings for Nomar and Damon,
Please give us a try.
For with Johnny in center and Nomar at third
Jack W. at short and Castillo to be heard,
And with Jason Bay in left with Duffy in right
Eldred at First we could show them some might.
Catchers? We have catchers Doumit and more
And not to forget we have pitching Galore.
They say we are poor but McClatch wants to spend
And a couple of Free Agents even if they are on the mend
Will look nice in Buc Black, and Gold right on through
2006 and the Playoffs yahoo!
Don’t part with Perez, this would be quite dumb.
The guy has a flair and his arm is a gun.
We’d like Blalock from Texas for sure
Overbay from the Brewers is getting the tour.
Fogg and Wells are both on the block
Pitchers are always part of the talk
They aren’t easy to shop each with something to prove
Off years for both make them hard to move.
Oh but my Bucs sit still for the mo,
Just please, oh please don’t sign guys who can’t throw.
Get a nice power hitter who can play third
And a centerfielder with flight
A hitter with power and a lead-off just right.
A short man for the pen we’re sure we don’t need
For Gonzales is the man, all rallies will heed.
We’re young and we’re growing and getting quite good,
And who knows, just maybe a wild card withstood.
So Santa, oh Santa make Littlefield smile,
Make him bright like Rudolph’s nose
And the fans to the park will file.
Bring us a third sacker, and a fleet guy in the field
Deliver us a power guy and a lead-off man please yield
Yes we’d like to recover from losing so long
A Happy Christmas to all, and 2006 our strong song. |
