American Idol guy David Cook asked at the David Wright "Do the Wright Thing" gala what his Royals need to do to win a championship, or at least make it to the playoffs:

"Sign David Wright nine times."

Owitch.

The tabloid coverage of that - "David Wright Sick Of New York - Demands Trade To Kansas City!"

David's also been quoted in the last few days about the Mets' closer situation.

Says that getting Fuentes won't be a disappointment (as compared to getting Rodriguez) but that he admires Rodriguez.

And he'll be more than happy to help with recruitment. He'll make phone calls and give tours of New York City.

Yeah I read those "quotes " from Wright , he said exactly what one would expect him to say.

I'm concerned that David is hanging around with fake rocker Cook.

Well, I'm concerned that you all tune in to AI to watch fake rocker Cook, but who listens to me?

Cook IIRC was a favorite of buckets.

Sweet! I want a David Wright-led tour of New York. Where do I get one? I'm calling Scott Boras and inking him as my agent.

Give Cook credit for identifying himself as a Royals fan. I'm sure that the Royals boards now include him under the one page thread "Royals-Loving Big Shots."

Big enough. The Royals can't exactly afford to be picky.

David gets the 2008 Silver Slugger for NL 3B.

Second year in a row. Beltran is off the list; he had won each of the last two years.

As in "Pop! Goes My Heart" from Music & Lyrics, he is gold and silver.
