THE CURSE IS LIFTED

Ladies and gentlemen, the Rangers have traded Chan Ho Park. Yes, there's a deal in place that would--pending league approval--send him to the Padres for Phil Nevin.

For some reason the Pads have agreed to take on what some consider to be the biggest contract bust in sports history. In return we get a guy who's having a bad season, but when healthy (okay, so it's not that often) he usually hits well.

I'll take THAT deal!

So presented for your viewing pleasure is a little sampler of images of NAHC OH KRAP. During his time here there was a recurring theme Park (nyuk nyuk) in his photos: wiping the brow. Week after week, loss after loss, there'd be an image of Park in some local rag, doing the wipe.

(OK, admittedly, the infamous "karate kick" photo dates from his Dodger days...)
