Would you prefer they broke out some Koreans like Ken Jeong and Margaret Cho?
-
Not for Harry Carey. He spelled any name backwards regardless of the race of the player and certainly with no regard for the complexity of the name. He was all about Equal Opportunity...
-
We need to resurrect Harry Carey to broadcast these games. It would be so much easier for him. "Lee spelled backwards, is eel." Much easier than watching him try that with Andres Galaragga...
-
You gotta love how Asian baseball teams go by the name of their sponsor rather than cities. It's like Little League in the USA...
-
SK Wyverns!!
-
Well that is something Mr. Springer accomplished without any help from his Astros’ teammates and something that isn’t marred by any scandals. James Earl Jones and Isaac Newton are also excellent role models for stutterers.. And Nick Ahmed is really, really underrated as a baseball player...
-
You still have Matt Barnes and the very underrated Nick Ahmed...
-
I love it! That same crew could also use
-
Maybe he was just talking about how steroids affect others. Like costing them the MVP award?
-
Yeah. As I said, it’s actually a pretty good choice. Plus it shows a certain intimidating importance in the lineup...
-
Absolutely amateur players are welcome. It can make any jokes difficult to get. But hey, if you had one in real life, go for it. And that’s actually a pretty good choice for a walk up song. I’m going for (bad) jokes here, but I like the choice. Also, hypothetical players are welcome too. Another one needed would be David Cone and his perfect song.
-
Inspired by 5GG and Bellhorn, the idea is simple. Assign the perfect walk up song for any hitter (or pitcher) past and present. Explanations are welcome but not necessary. Also, if you have a better song for any hitter already done, go for it. An easy one Jose Canseco
-
Like this?
-
Well, Velcro wasn’t invented at the start of that at bat...
-
Those exact words were engraved on a tin plate on the underside of the WAPM...
-
As much as I like Riders on the Storm, Hargrove could also just use all of 2112 by Rush as a walkup song, too....
-
But I do thank god they did not install Scioscia. And so does Brandon Workman, who would have seen his arm literally fall off of his body under the Closer Killer...
-
Maybe. The one thing tht puzzles me is why it took so long to install Roenicke if tha wa the plan. I'm talking about the time it took just to make him interim manager. If they were going forward with 2020, as you say, they certainly took a long time just to come around to promoting the bench coach to temporary replacement. I can't say one way or the other on Cora, but I don't think his return is the slam dunk you are predicting. In fact, after this year, Cora is free to talk to any team about a managerial role. Had the Sox not fired him, they could have prevented that possibility...
-
If Mike Hargove was still playing, his walkup song would be "Ina Gadda Da Vita". And we'd get through the whole thing. Possibly twice...
-
It was a completely insufficient and irrelevant thing to bring up...
-
HE is, but that doesm't mean Roenicke isn't and it doesn't mean Bloom wants him. The Red Sox did not have to fire him in the wake of the Houston scandal. But they did, and they did so immediately, not even waiting for an investigation. Doesn't that seem odd? (Beltran had the same fate, but unlike Cora, Beltran had zero track record and zero rings. Easier dismissal.)
-
No he did not. But that doesn't mean it never happens. Had Farrell been suspended for a year at the beginning of Dombrowski's tenure, it might have been a different story about when Farrell left...
-
Why? What reason should Bloom have to bring Cora back?
-
While we all liked to hold Cora respnsible for restgate, I have no idea how Henry felt. And I do doubt he would have been let Cora go just for finishing third. But Bloom wanting his name on everything? I can see that happening. No team executive wants to lose based on a decision made by his predecessor...
-
And really the whole "do I pinch hit for the guy throwing a 3-hitter in the seventh inning" argument has been dead ever since coaches started tracking pitch counts. It's the seventh. He's at his limit and you have pitchers assigned to the 8th and 9th inning anyway...
