More news proving that left-handed relievers truly do own the world, even when they're not that good, while the rest of us just rent. While I'm sure journeyman lefty Matt White really wants to make the Dodgers roster this spring, it's clear that some of the do-or-die financial ramifications of not making the final 25 have been mitigated by the news that some property he bought three years ago for 50K to help out an elderly aunt has something in the neighborhood of two billion dollars in quarry stone on it.
Two billion! For that kind of money, White can, as Krusty the Clown once did, enjoy condor egg omlettes and buy a new house whenever his current one gets dirty. He can give Jason Schmidt a stack of $1000 bills to mop the sweat off his bald head. Hell, White could buy the team from Frank McCourt, make himself the closer and play third base the rest of the time. Now take some deep breaths, count to ten... and run out into your yard with a shovel looking for rocks.
