I bought the new R.E.M. CD ("Accelerate") at Barnes & Noble last week, forgetting that I'd preordered it on Amazon a couple months ago.  The Amazon shipment arrived today, and though I'm digging the CD, I don't need two of them.

So I'm going to give it, still wrapped, to one of you. 

My 2008 MLB column is now three weeks old, as I build a 25-man roster from the bottom up, featuring my favorite player from franchise history at each spot as well as the player from the farm system who might project best to fill that role down the road.  The fourth spot -- the left-handed bullpen specialist (the "LOOGY," to some of you) -- is next week's feature.  Guess both my all-time southpaw specialist and my top prospect for that spot, and the CD is yours.

If more than one of you get the right two answers, I'll send an email to each of you with the tiebreaker question, which will be to guess the fifth week's featured players -- the past and future utility infielder.

Here's who the column has featured so far:

BACKUP CATCHER    Bill Haselman & Manny Pina

LONG RELIEVER     Danny Darwin & Michael Schlact/Doug Mathis

FOURTH OUTFIELDER Ruben Sierra & Brandon Boggs

Email me your guesses on the all-time and future left-handed bullpen specialist by 10 a.m. on Friday.
