There's only one reason to keep watching and he's in the bullpen wearing number 60.

There's only one reason to keep watching and he's in the bullpen wearing number 60.

And now I'm confused on how to pronounce his name.

 

I had long ago given up on CHARGE-oyz.  Settled on SHAG-wah.

 

And then dickbert start calling him shag-WAH.

 

WTF?

[LaBombo]

 

 

Could be post of the week material!

 

Whatever credit is due goes to the inspiration, your 2016 Minnesota Twins.

 

Btw, Dick now thinks the game is getting out of hand(!).  Rumor has it that as a junior Mondale staffer, he urged Walter to hold out for the recount results vs. Reagan in '84.

[Platoon]

For a guy his age Sergio Leon has had quite a game!

Too bad North is not here, he speaks fluent Canadian French!

[Mike Sixel]

Tough bunch of hitters to debut against.....

[USAFChief]

Now Marney adds "Shang-WAH" to the list of choices.

[spinowner]

Oh, come on Marney, there's no N. Shah-gwah, with a hint of an R after the Shah. At least that's how I would have been taught to say it when I took French in high school all those years ago.

[jimbo92107]

Shang-wei. Schmarz-waagh. Sn, sn, meghaaa. 

 

Cthulhu?

[Mike Sixel]

I am seriously considering writing in Cthulu in November....

No sense in worrying about the correct pronunciation unless the team doesn't follow the standard procedure of slapping a cutesie nickname on him that ends with the long E sound.

 

Until they get it sorted out, I'm just going with "Chargie, the rookie with electric stuff!"

[jimbo92107]

News flash for Chargois: MLB hitters can handle fastballs down the middle. 

[USAFChief]

I hope he doesn't blow this game, however you pronounce his name.

 

Got to keep this within 6.

[Platoon]

In the last two games, we must have blown at least 4 DP chances!

[S.]

At least all of the successful arms in the pen can give him some solid advice after the game. Oh, wait...

[LaBombo]

Jepsen:   "Now you've got the idea, kid.  You're gonna fit right in".

And while this game is meaningless, that ground ball to left should have been fielded. Sheesh

[OldTimeTwinkie]

Our farm system is just wonderful!

For a guy his age Sergio Leon has had quite a game!

Wonderful debut......when does this farm system actually offer help? Unreal.

[Platoon]

A sign of the times: Dick/Bert says Molitor has to bring in his closer! And until the gate opened, I had no damn idea who he was talking about! Good grief. I keep looking for Lucy and Snoopy in the field.

[LaBombo]

If Terry Ryan still has a job in 2017, I ****ing quit.

[jimbo92107]

Typical yips for a young pitcher. I have no idea if JT Chargois is any good. Won't know for a couple more outings. Live arm...

[Platoon]

You could switch bad and ugly without too much dispute! . One of, if not the best Westerns of all time! A classic!

[USAFChief]

It's tough to look through that long, dark tunnel of dispair that is the 2016 Minnesota Twins, see another small glimmer of light at the end, and know, just KNOW, that it's yet another train barreling at you at 90 MPH.  Another train that will mercilessly run you over as sure as the sun will rise in the morning.  

 

The Minnesota Twins:  Abandon ye all hope.

[Platoon]

If Terry Ryan still has a job in 2017, I ****ing quit.

You can't quit, we fired you!

Same here.  If I were at the game I think I would have tried to get a "Maximus!!!" chant going...

If my fired, you mean banned, then yes, I probably will be banned if he has a job in 2017.
