He's Lucky to be Miserable

The Winter Meetings left Bill Bavasi with a bad feelings:

"This was one of the more miserable winter meetings I've ever been to," Mariners GM Bill Bavasi said. "Between the lack of activity and the volcanic (free agent) market, it was tough."

Was there any upside at all?

"We're not done," said Bavasi, who hopes to land another starter, and who might go after a right-handed reliever now that Soriano is gone.

At least they weren't horrible:

I feel that life is divided into the horrible and the miserable. That's the two categories. The horrible be like, I don't know, terminal cases, you know, and blind people, crippled. I don't know how they get through life. It's amazing to me. And the miserable is everyone else. So you should be thankful that you're miserable, because that's very lucky, to be miserable.

Of course, it's possible that miserable meetings lead to horrible teams.

Did he have to share his pain with all the fans of his team?

Dude, Vinny, that is not cool. We're talking baseball here, not interpersonal sexual violence.
