I thought Buster Olney was going to cry today

Olney was on Charley Steiner's show today talking about information fed by MLB, Inc. on the pending signing of Japanese pitcher Matsuzaka. His shrill, high-pitched voice whined,

• The Red Sox SHOULD HAVE GOTTEN DAMON!...The Red Sox SHOULD HAVE GOTTEN ABREU! (almost shrieking now, probably reaching for a tissue, really sputtering).
• And they SHOULD GET Matsuzaka, WHO WOULD'VE BEEN...
• PER-FECT for the Yankees. (Sounding very triumphant, probably the tears started to abate...)

Then Olney says he knows the higher-ups in the Red Sox organization pretty well (OH MY GOD, WHAT A HUGE REVELATION---I'M SHOCKED), AND HE THEREFORE PREDICTS THE GUYS THERE WILL EASILY PUT SCOTT BORAS IN A CORNER, SAYING TO HIM:

• (Olney portraying Red Sox suits:), "HEEEERES the deal, BIG GUY..." were Olney's words. Wow, he must really know a lot, what a genius.
