Gabe is Back!!!

Red Sox nation...or at least about half of it, give or take, rejoices....

Former player and über-hottie Gabe Kapler is, according to the AP, returning to Boston after a one-year stint with the Yomiuri Giants that didn't go so well.

If you want to learn more about Gabe, or just see some more pictures of his arms, check out the Gabe Kapler Tribute Site.

Also, in addition to those arms, he's a good guy, and was very supportive in helping his wife Lisa recover from domestic violence. Since then, Gabe and Lisa have used Gabe's celebrity to help raise money and awareness of domestic violence, particularly with Jane Doe, the Massachusetts Coalition against Sexual Assault and Domestic Violence.

Welcome back to Boston Gabe!
