Wild Wild West

Think the AL West lacked bad boy character last season? No longer.

The dust has hardly begun to settle on Dan Wilson's tools of ignorance, and we're already knee deep in bad character.

Today, Oakland sent interesting prospect Andre Ethier to the Dodgers for Milton Bradley, current holder of the Vince Coleman firecracker award three years running.

The next thing you know, our own beloved M's will be contemplating signing Carl Everett or something. (By the way, Cuddly Carl has apparently stolen one of my many beloved nicks. I should sue.)

Queue up the live version of "A Little Bitter," and we're set to go.
