Watch as she stoops to yet another low!

So today I finally crowned myself Lord (or Lady, rather) of the Dorks - I committed and ordered my 'Lowrie 12' shirt. It should arrive within six to ten days. I swear, I will be the only person on the face of the earth with one of those. (If you really want some PawSox gear - or any Minor League apparel, for that matter, here's MiLB's shop.)

However, I am quite proud of the fact that I will be the only person on the face of the earth with one of those. It makes me special in a creepy stalker kind of way and I will stand out. I can also take the thing to Pawtucket and look slightly less weird.

Also, that '10 players' meme reminded me of a comment I once noticed here (on the epic Jacoby picspam that was started by normal people but was temporarily overrun by freakish fangirls, most of whom have conveniently stopped posting to let the rational people get their thread back by now): Can we officially give the Red Sox an award for the hottest draftees and farm system? Between Jacoby, Papelbon, Brandon Moss, the ah-dorable Clay Buchholz, Justin Masterson, Kyle Jackson, Jed Lowrie, Will Middlebrooks, George Kottaras, Michael Bowden, Ryan Kalish…I feel like I should bow down.

I can't remember who posted it, but I remembered it. I also remember highlighting the fact that Jed was on there. It was the same entry in which I gleefully discovered that I wasn't the only person who had listed Jed Lowrie as an interest on Livejournal. Now that I look back on it, I realize that I listed almost all of them when I did the meme. Wow. I guess when I play along and go shallow, I'm just like every fangirl who actually pays attention to Minor Leaguers.

Not that there are too many of those anyway.

In other news, I saw this headline on Yahoo! when I went to check my e-mail, and I misread it. I saw the name Clay and thought Buchholz, but it was actually talking about a different Clay:



But doesn't everyone say that kid on the left there looks like a little Jacoby Ellsbury? Hmm. Maybe I was thinking about the right Clay after all.
