* Paul Byrd's upcoming book

June 11, 2008

MLB.com reports on the process by the reliever in completing the game with his Free Byrd

The 37-year-old Byrd, who notched his 100th career win Friday
against the Tigers, began compiling the journal entries that became the
basis for his manuscript with the thought that they would be worth
sharing with his sons. Eventually, a friend persuaded him to turn them
into his first book.

“Free Byrd,” which includes a foreword written by John Smoltz,
is billed as Byrd’s chronicle of his ability to maintain a Christian
lifestyle despite the temptations often associated with the life of a
Major League player.
