BoSox Sign Colon, Hide Cheeseburgers

According to ESPN, the Red Sox have signed Bartolo Colon to a minor league contract as an insurance plan for the unpredictable nature of Curt Schilling's future.
The Boston Red Sox have reached preliminary agreement on a minor league contract with right-hander Bartolo Colon, a source told ESPN.com's Jerry Crasnick.
If he makes the Opening Day roster, Colon would provide rotation insurance for Boston, which will be without Curt Schilling, who is working his way back from a shoulder injury.
The White Sox, Cardinals and Astros also had been rumored as possible
suitors for Colon this offseason.
