Sox recruit from a galaxy far, far, away....

After losing Curt Schilling to surgery, the Boston Red Sox resort to traveling to the Wookie planet of Kashyyyk in order to fill the void. Just 12 parsecs from Earth, this Mid Rim planet is the principal world of the Kashyyyk system. This star system that also contains the homeworld of the reptilian Trandoshans, which has been a heavy recruiting planet since the drafting of Derek Jeter back in 1992. The Sox chose the wookies for their fierce throwing arms, short tempered attitude, and their defiance to all things Empire. After a few scouting trips to several villages, Theo Epstein spotted the famed Wookie warrior Chewbacca throwing 200lbs spears at Banthas from a distance of 300ft. That was all Theo needed to see to sign the 7'6'', 425lbs left to a 30yr $65million deal. When asked as to why he chose a 30yr deal instead of a 3yr deal Theo replied "Well. The average lifespan of a wookie in human years is 347yrs. Give a take a rebellion here or there". When asked how he feels about playing for the famed Boston Red Sox Chewie stated "Rrrooowwrr. Ggggrggggyylll. Hhrrggrrllllerrrr!!!". "You said it Chewie" commented agent Han Solo. When reporters asked about the incedent in which the wookie once pulled the throwing arm off of Charleston River Dogs' Chance Baker during an inter-galactic exhibition, the wookie just chuckled.
