[tomsred]

In my house we prefer to say that we are going in One Direction.

Fire away, haters!

 

Doesn't anybody have GPS, jeez it's the 21st century for crying out loud.

Hey now, my daughter's 18th birthday gift was a meet and greet concert ticket for them.

Of course that was two years ago.

My best 18th birthday gift was a case of Heineken and a 2 finger lid of Acapulco Gold.

i've taken my daughter to see them in concert twice. I WIN!!!!!!

[Mark68]

I have refused to have children for this very reason. It's enough to have a wife who had crushes on Simon Le Bon, Joe Elliot, and Rick Springfield growing up.

[Pujols4MVP]

Wow. Can Pujols talk Dave Duncan out of retirement to fix the Angels bullpen ?

Dave Duncan could probally turn Street into Trever Hoffman in his prime over night.

[CaliAngel]

That pic of Baylor napping in the dugout is gold.

[Troll Daddy]

The decision to fire these two cats may have been made before Eppler was hired.

[Troll Daddy]

I heard Manny was interested in a hitting coach job.

[Homebrewer]

Manny has a hitting coach job.

He works for Theo and the Cubs.

[Blarg]

He's not done a very good job the last two games.

[Dick B Back]

He's not done a very good job the last two games.

And the Cubbies should probably dump that Arrieta guy cause he sucked. Maybe the Halos can get him for cheap.

[Guest]

Eppler?

[Tank]

He's not done a very good job the last two games.

Don't worry, he'll quit first, the damn scouting reports are worthless.

Mike Butcher hired as Diamondbacks pitching coach. #Angels fired him after season.

"Wait, I thought Butcher will never ever get another pitching coach job, much less right away"

Said in the tone of the Dipotophites.

[Jobu]

Lots of people thought he sucked. Regardless of their opinion of the front office.

[Stradling]

I thought he was nothing special, probably average.

[Blarg]

Like Dipoto, he went to a fourth place team.

[Stradling]

Well how many first and second place teams are replacing their GM and pitching coaches?

[UndertheHalo]

So now that one of Scoscia's guys got hired quickly does that mean Scoscia is validated.  Kind of like how since Jerry's guys got hired, he's validated ?

I guess Klentak is a feather in Jerry's cap but the other Jerry guys got hired by Jerry....not sure that means a lot....

Butcher getting hired pretty quick probably explains why his parting was "mutual" with no hard feelings....perhaps he had the Dbacks lined up or felt pretty good about it....

Two words

Diamond backs.
