A SoxandPhil who doesn't wear cleats

Other than griping about snow, I didn't have a strong feeling this morning for what I would write about until I read this little nugget on Todd Zolecki's blog:

Congratulations to Wilmington News Journal's Scott Lauber, who just got a job covering the Red Sox for the Boston Herald.

Congrats, indeed. It's always good to see a quality reporter leave Gannett on his own terms. I wish Lauber well in Boston. I don't look at it as losing a Phillies scribe, but gaining a Red Sox reporter.

This won't be the first time that Lauber, who attended Boston University, has covered the Red Sox. As I mentioned about a year ago, he previously did some work for an underground program sold outside Fenway.
