I make up for in an unbelievable amount of dog shit.

Perfect. Maybe we can use it to play second base.

You’re not Penske material, though. Sorry.

Good work on getting in a Seinfeld reference. You always keep us on our toes, Kerm.

1) I thought Jaramillo had a full no-trade clause – that’s what this HJE site said when he was hired…

2) One big Crazytown? Come my lady, come come my lady…

Marmol finished tied for 17th among NL closers in saves with 15, yet the next highest number of walks among the ninth-inning specialists was 38 by the Mets� Francisco Rodriguez and the Nationals� Mike MacDougal.

In just a few lines, Carrie recapitulates the entire history of The Muskbox. Several numbers. No context. No useful information. Emphasis on an obsolete metric for evaluating “closers.” Best of all, the weird use of “yet” to conjoin (or disjoin? it’s hard to tell!@) two clauses that want nothing to do with each other into one perverse, unholy, monstrum horrendum.
