Adam Kennedy and Dontrelle Willis?

[Dtwncbad]

Are these guys basically auditioning for a permanent gig?

Kennedy seems a little nervous and uncomfortable. . .

Everyone and their sister is in Cooperstown.

Dontrelle is effectively wild.  The comments he makes about guys he knows really catch my attention, and what was the comment about yellow balls and golf and bushes.  It felt like a setup but would they really set that up.

its as if the entire organization is going for it

What does Kennedy say ? "I once hit 3 HRs in a playoff game & thats about it"(with a Forrest Gump sounding voice).

[Lou]

Dontrelle should be a permanent hire.

[Ray McKigney]

I think they're both doing a good job.

[mancini79]

Dontrelle is great. He isn't afraid to call out players or umps.

I’m liking Willis so far. He’s fun in that his approach feels like he’s a player more so than Gubicza’s. I understand that Gubicza played of course, but Willis just feels a bit more connected. Kennedy.... meh. He seems a bit uncomfortable on camera for sure.

[Lou]

Kennedy was bad.

[Billy_Ball]

I enjoyed D-Train’s commentary.

seriously.  he could stand to talk a bit less but he had some great insight about pitching mechanics and sequencing.   he was also funny.  He didn't have a ton of chemistry with Victor early on, but it got better as the games wore on.

I don’t get to watch when they play the Mariners so I’m sad I didn’t get to see D-Train this weekend. Cool to hear he did well

[Tank]

it was nice to hear a different voice on the broadcast. i liked willis. i think he kept the conversation going a lot better than gubi does. he helped cut down on a lot of the dead air that seems to grow with every broadcast this year.

[GrittyVeterans]

I like Willis but he needs to talk a tad bit less. He’s way less grating to listen to than Gubicza though

[goldenGlove]

Willis was good, was interesting to listen to. Gubi is horrible. He often sounds contrived and I hate when he almost calls us the Royals

D-Train was good.. I met AK at a bar once in Seattle a year after he retired, I believe finishing his career with the M's. 

He looks like he's a sloppy drunk. He was already slurring after one beer.

I completely disagree. His personal anecdotes were entertaining and were a welcome change from Gubi's usual drivel.

You’re selling him a little short.  He had a 4 year stretch with the Angels where he averaged over a 3.5 WAR.  Dude Rex Hudler has an analyst job.

Adam did get a DUI in 2011/2012 here in the OC

I wonder how he comments on players that have to long of a swing?

Sorry, was making fun of his LISP. I always liked him as a player, great glove & a underrated base stealer & solid OBP thru his Angels career.
