Looks like the unholy spawn of Pedroia and Youkilis. Look at that chin!

I’m not sure why but I like Bobby V. He always seems like that cool uncle that seems really on the the up and up then one day he’ll offer to drink a 6 pack with you in the garage while you’re still in HS. I always get a laugh at Bobby’s facial expression when the cameras on him but someone else is talking, so animated.

You do realize how funny it is that you bring up Bobby Valentine in connection with the Feesh, right?

Coda: the irrepressible Logan Morrison has corked off the the local press that Mailee’s firing was just a lot of scapegoating. Well, that’s news, certainly.

See my comments about Warren Cromartie above. Anyway, it’s not just the execrable situational hitting that’s killing my Feesh; the boolpen has been less than Olympian for some weeks now, even preceding this skid. What’s wrong with this team is wrong all the way through it.

da-da-dant-da-da-dant!

Now if only somebody would hire ESPN screwball Bobby Valentine away and get his useless ass off the air too!

So, who are they gonna hire to coach hitters versus right handers?

Warren Cromartie has been hanging around the margins of Terra Pescado for years now, haunting first this radio talk show and then that one, hinting that he'd like the Feesh batting coach job. The crow cries in the wilderness, but hell, he probably could do a pretty fine job with these guys. Wish they'd've given him a shot at it.

I liked when Molina got skewered trying to get out of the cave in Raiders of the Lost Ark. I also liked it when he compared screwing to a handshake in Whatsername. I only wish my ex had been that friendly.

The Yankees have a non-genuine Molina in Scranton.

Ah, you’ve tumbled to my clever, clever plan. Basically only 2 teams have a coveted Molina (until Bengie un-retires of course); The Cardinals and The Blue Jays. As such the remaining 28 teams all need one. This is my only way to fame, fortune and a Shane Victorino-esque maccin’ life style. It’s a can’t miss.

Wont any team sign a catcher whos last name is Molina?

By: cur68

cur68 — Thu, 09 Jun 2011 03:59:09 +0000

Oh pick me PLEASE! Cur “El Gaucho” Molina68 is ready to be a blogger/bench coach/back up catcher right now. Look, I changed my name to Molina; that’s catching PEDIGREE man. How can they resist?

Wasn’t Perez working for ESPN Deportes? How is Ford’s Spanish? Also, ESPN would have to hire him away from the Long Island Ducks!

Second day in a row an ESPN guy gets a coaching gig. Marc Jackson going to the Warriors and now Perez. Next teams will be hiring bloggers!

Awesome Lew Ford reference!

I suppose the Feesh had to do something. They’ve swan-dived out of second place and hit third with a mighty thud. They must’ve thought they saw water. Ah well. Having the Mutts barking up your tailpipe is nothing to be proud of.

BTW Dan Uggla looked totally lost at the plate tonight. What a horrible season he’s having. He’d better start figuring out what to claim is hurting, and soon.

I can’t stop looking at that picture now. Great stuff, Jeremiah.

…is there any chance they fired him because he appears to be wearing Dustin Pedroia’s face as a mask?!

I know there’s a lot of teams that frown upon that…

Does this mean there’s an opening at ESPN for Minnesota Twins LEGEND, Lew Ford?!

I cannot imagine a better baseball analyst than Lew…and believe me, I’ve tried.
