A few days ago, Mike Mussina told the Yankees about his plans to retire instead of coming back to play next year, and I want to make a couple of things clear about my point of view in relation to this before you scroll to the bottom of this and leave me comments. Yes, Mike Mussina is my least favorite player in baseball, making him my least favorite person in non-wrestling professional sports. Yes, this is because he used to be the best player in Baltimore and left to pitch for the Yankees. Yes, Mussina is one of the best pitchers of his era, and yes, my prejudices are based on jealousy, loyalty to a team I am not a part of, and irrational expectations for humanity. No, I do not have a real job. Yes, you should leave me a long, asinine comment about this whether you read this or not.
In case you were wondering about Mussina's user name, it was established in G1 Dugout continuity that Mussina would've had a normal, punny name had he stuck around in Baltimore. Also, Farnsworth would've been black?
Today's Dugout is after the jump.
