Third Base Commentary
|
B. Mueller |
How
many different ways can you say “One Year Wonder” ??? |
|
H. Blalock |
He is the real deal. |
|
C. Koskie |
The master of seeing
eye singles. |
|
E. Chavez |
Couldn’t hit a
lefty with Tyson’s fists |
|
S. Rolen |
Think he is glad he
got out of Philly now? Better stats on a worse team = watching the
playoffs from his own living room. |
|
S. Burroughs |
All singles no pop. |
|
J. Conine |
Is this guy still
around? |
|
A. Boone |
Let’s play
basketball Aaron!! |
|
V. Castilla |
3-year avg. of .259
with .294 onbase, and some team still wants him? |
|
P. Polanco |
Watching grass grow
is more exciting then this guy |
|
J. Randa |
A 3rd
baseman without power or speed; lets draft this guy early! |
|
T. Glaus |
Has fewer hits then
Vanilla Ice |
|
M. Lowell |
If you didn’t break
your wrist--- you could be higher on the list |
|
E. Alfonso |
An All-Star only in
Japan and his own mind |
|
E. Munson |
I thought only horses
slept standing up |
