Anyone know if he got lasik eye surgery during the offseason? Hopefully so he can see the ball better and play more.
Yes. By all reports he also lost about 20 pounds, so it looks like the “desire” is there to recapture some of that magic from his 2006 season.
The problem remains coming back from that torn calf muscle. Ken Macha has pretty much named him the team’s starting 3B even though he only made his spring debut about ten days ago.
It sound’s like he’ll get the opportunity early…You just have to hope he can bounce back from the torn calf muscle.

Laser skin rejuvenation is a weapon in the arsenal to combat signs of aging. No harsh chemicals are used and there is no long recovery period involved in the process. Laser skin rejuvenation is a popular procedure that can reduce the effects of the sun, aging and some facial disorders. Treatments are safe, effective and convenient, while diminishing the appearance of imperfections on the surface of the skin.
Common Conditions That Respond to Laser Skin Rejuvenation
Lasers are used to treat various skin conditions such as:
Age spots or dry, dull skin
Fine lines
Freckles
Scars
Spider veins
Wrinkles
Unwanted hair
Varicose veins
Studies have shown that laser skin rejuvenation dramatically reduces fine lines around the eyes and mouth. Age spots can be diminished by half after one treatment and may be completely eliminated with follow-up treatments. Laser skin rejuvenation can reduce deep lines, remove shallow scars and tighten the skin.
Are There Any Risks Involved?
While laser skin rejuvenation can be very effective, it does not work the same for everyone, so it is important to have realistic expectations when choosing to undergo the procedure. Laser skin rejuvenation has fewer side effects than chemical peels and dermabrasion, but there are still risks involved.
The most common risk is temporary darkening or lightening of the treated skin and a small risk of scarring. Of course, the success of any cosmetic procedure is in a large part dependent on the skills and knowledge of the healthcare practitioner performing the procedure.
Laser skin rejuvenation can permanently remove signs of aging such as spider veins, age spots or scars, but cannot prevent your skin from continuing to age. However, new skin problems can and most likely will develop.

Convicted Killer Wants State To Pay For Sex Change
BOSTON (AP) ― A man serving a life sentence for murdering his wife is asking a federal judge to order the state to pay for a sex-change operation, arguing that denying him the surgery amounts to cruel and unusual punishment.
A psychiatrist testified Tuesday that he believes Robert Kosilek — who now goes by Michelle — will commit suicide if state corrections officials refuse to allow the surgery and Kosilek is unable to complete the transformation into a woman.
Kosilek, 57, was convicted of strangling his wife, Cheryl, in 1990.
In 2002, U.S. District Judge Mark Wolf ruled Kosilek was entitled to treatment for gender identity disorder, but he stopped short of ordering the state to pay for a sex-change operation.
Since then, Kosilek has received psychotherapy, female hormone treatments and laser hair removal.
It’s ok Wingnut, it’s understandable.
He should be housed exactly where he was when he received his sentence – with the men.
He forfeited his rights when he took someone else’s life–depriving them of their ultimate right. I’d say death by strangling is a pretty cruel and unusual punishment for his wife. Strangling is an awful, painful, slow way to die.
It’s not the state’s responsibility to coddle him, pay for non-essential surgeries, or treat him with kid gloves. If he wants to complete the circle of travesties by taking one more life–his own–he’s welcome to do so.
