I like Bengie. He takes his protege seriously.

“I’m going to sit him down and tell him what Correia likes to do on certain counts.”

Such as give up dingers!

Yay for youth.

Yes, but which counts does he like to do this????

That’s the important thing to know for a young catcher.

What gets me is Willie Randolph was fired because the Mets just tanked, but did he actually make any completely idiotic decisions they way Bochy rountinely does? What the fuck does it take to get this guy fired, seriously?

Wasn’t one of those a double play ball, though?

Also, WAY TO GO, BOCHY! Even with Sandoval, Ishikawa, and Rohlinger starting, you’ve managed a MASSIVE FAIL at lineup construction. Ugh.

The gamewinning hit in San Diego was a smoked double, and the walkoff hit against the Dodgers was due to Dodger idiocy.

Who in the heck is doing graphic design for the Connecticut Defenders website?

A post on Sandoval and Rohlinger was teased with this graphic:

It looks like something I would have made in MSPaint 8 years ago.

They probably splurged on the graphics budget and went with Microsoft Word. That way, they could do that fancy WordArt the kids are into these days.

So random, but this reminds me of the time I went to a game in Norwich, saw such future superstars as Greg Bruso, Alejandro Freire, and Carlos Valderrama, and between innings, was, uh, entertained by this:
