Kubel rips it again!

Kubel: Revenge is sweet.

 

Must have gotten mad at all the nasty comments about him.

30 dingers in 2012... I'll take that in 2014.

[Tibs]

Limited seats remain for home opener?

[ashbury]

Isn't that like asking what the crocodile has for dinner?

 

How long do you think Brian's nose will become if he goes to Derek Norris and just asks?

[tharasix]

I was listening a bit to the top of the second driving into work... What happened to Pelf's newfound faster tempo on the mound? I swear it was about a minute between pitches to Norris.

Pinochio?

 

I wouldnt ask him... I'd run a scientific analysis. Petrie dish... Microscope... Gloves... Gloves for sure. A sample of the beard and analysis of the sample.

 

I think its possible... You'd find Billy Gibbons himself inside that beard.

[sorney]

Only need 3 1/3 innings more of scoreless baseball and Big Pelf has himself a quality start!!!

[Mike Sixel]

"we signed these pitchers so we wouldn't get into a hole right away" looks about as accurate as "we will play meaningful games in September".....I think I typed that yesterday too.....

[ashbury]

Pinochio?

 

I think sampleSize was referring to this story:

 

The Elephant's Child

 

Do you like Kipling?

[ashbury]

I think so too. Fortunately the rules on trolling tend to be a little more relaxed here in the game threads.

Pelfrey, Pelfrey, Pelfrey.

Kipling? Not so much.

 

I'm more a fan of Rudyard.

Was that trolling? Sorry, totally meant to be more orcing.....

Little Nickie is a walking machine.

[tharasix]

Based on the ESPN gamecast, I don't think Pelf would have given up a single walk if the ump had more than a 6 sq. in. strike zone. You essentially have to groove one, or it's a ball.

[mikeee]

there it goes....

[Riverbrian]

Pelfrey, Pelfrey, Pelfrey.

 

I think you forgot to click your Ruby Slippers when you repeat that.

[Thegrin]

Dang Pelfrey !!! The man can't throw it where he wants it.

[mikeee]

pelfsie.....

[tharasix]

I welcome the new robot overlords... I mean umpires.

[mikeee]

Pitch to contact.... Lots of that going on here.

[Ultima Ratio]

I love this rotation. Lights out….'with regularity' (spoken as Bill Raftery).

[Thegrin]

and another reason for technology to call balls and strikes. Screw tradition. Let the strike zone be standard

[ashbury]

Kipling? Not so much.

 

For future reference, that was a setup for "I don't know. I've never Kipled." You'll find the opportunity comes up all the time. Real Life Of The Party stuff there.

Careful, you'll make him appear.

LOL... As you know... Sometimes you take the dog for a walk and it goes right past the fire hydrant.

You can lead a dog to water but you can't make him pee?
