MORE BLATHER FROM BUMBLING BOB
I know Dead Reckoning linked to this Tribune article were the main headline was about Chris Snelling painting, and we later learn that he paints abstracts and thinks they're crap. I'm sure he can paint a better abstract than I can write one (especially of the scientific variety).
But did you see the other bullcrap in the article?
Some notes from Bob Melvin...
-- On [Ramon] Santiago: "I didn't realize he had such a tremendous upside. He's a switch-hitter with great range at shortstop. He's fun to watch."
-- On [Hiram] Bocachica: "We've seen him take part in drills as an infielder and an outfielder, and he's as good as anyone other than our starters at any position he's worked."
Forgive me if I'm short-sighted in saying this, but I think the same thing about these guys: CRAP. Crappity crappity crap crap crap. It may be the worst crap since R Kelly's doo doo butter from Chappelle's Show last year, and at least I could laugh at that. Having crap on your favorite team sucking up two roster spots (it's possible with these two guys) is not the least bit funny.
I've seriously thought a few times this offseason about not even caring about whether the Mariners do well or do crappy this year, and I've subsequently thought about hoping the Mariners go down in flames just so that a majority of the Mariner blogosphere will be vindicated.
I really shouldn't have to think about that, but in a lot of ways, it's out of my hands.
What did we...
What did we...
What did we do to deserve this?
