The boogeyman checks under his bed for Mitch Talbot

Mitch Talbot once beat a brick wall at tennis.

[jacksonianmarch]

Mitch Talbot counted to infinity, twice

Kevin Youkilis gets on base three times a night while sleeping.

Luis Valbuena will never have a heart attack. His heart would never be foolish enough to attack him

[Spudboy]

Who is in the booth with Remy?

 

I just tuned in.

[jacksonianmarch]

When Travis Hafner wants an egg, he cracks open a chicken

[Youk Of The Nation]

Andy Marte practices fielding with live grenades.

[jacksonianmarch]

Mitch Talbot built a time machine and went back in time to stop the JFK assassination. As Oswald shot, Mitch Talbot met all three bullets with his beard, deflecting them. JFK's head exploded out of sheer amazement.

[ORS]

Then Oliver Stone made a bad movie about it.

[Palodios]

Jon Lester has two pitches. Strikes, and strikeouts.

[jacksonianmarch]

When Mitch Talbot pees, he clogs the toilet.

[Palodios]

Jon Lester was the hunter who killed Bambi's Mother. It was an off-speed pitch.

[jacksonianmarch]

Jason Donald is 1/8th Cherokee. This has nothing to do with ancestry, the man ate a f***ing Indian.

[Spudboy]

Talbot's going to be over 60 pitches when the 2nd inning ends.

[redsoxrules]

Talbot is awsome

[transcam21]

Talbot was born in a log cabin that he built with his bare hands

[jacksonianmarch]

Jhonny Peralta uses a live rattlesnake as a condom

[Palodios]

Pitches faster than a speeding bullet ... with an arm more powerful than a locomotive ... able to leap tall buildings in a single bound... yes, these are some of Jon Lester's warm-up exercises.

[BigPapiEnFuego]

best game thread ive seen so far

[Spudboy]

best game thread ive seen so far

 

Yeah. No one is fighting.

 

Yet.

[suns]

I already know after 1 bad start you are the worst pitcher ever.

 

Let me be the one who starts the fighting.

[transcam21]

Jon Lester once got a boner while asleep on his stomach. He struck oil
