Re: 2014 MLB Thread
 

Many years ago here in Cincinnati, there was a nightclub where several of the Reds showed up after games on a regular basis. One time when the Padres were in town they got the 'San Diego Chicken' to come along, in costume. Found myself next to him after some drinking had been done. ( Much more by him than me by the way.) Anyhow at one point he said "Watch this" and every time a pretty girl would pass by he'd ask them "Do you want to touch my p*cker?"

True story, which I'd forgotten about for a long long time until your post, icehog.

Too funny, Brian. :r

Re: 2014 MLB Thread
 

Awesome! :D

Re: 2014 MLB Thread
 

Is it? I'm not familiar enough with ursine anatomy to know if it is awesome, or just average. ;)

Tigers sign Scherzer for 1 year, 15.5 million. Hope they intend locking him up a little longer term before he hits free agency.

I got a push the other day that said Manny Machado's doc was releasing him to get back to baseball related activities.
Good for Manny. I felt awful for the poor kid.

Hoping Tanaka makes up his mind before the 24th.

Lot's of hoping going on here, ok I hope that the Red Sox play those cute fuzzy wuzzle widdle Tigers again in the ALCS, plus Dan's, minus Uncle Bob. :r

I hear by dub it the Mac -n- Cheese series.

Re: 2014 MLB Thread
 

Well if the Sox land Tanaka, the other Sox probably won't be playing the Tigers in the ALCS;)

I stand by my original prediction, Tanaka will sign with a MLB team:D

Re: 2014 MLB Thread
 

PLEASE no Uncle Bob! :lr

The WS are gonna need a WHOLE lot more than Tanaka to make the ALCS, Nate. :24

Re: 2014 MLB Thread
 

That's a big "if" and big "probably" BOY, looks like we got here is a failure to communicate.

Re: 2014 MLB Thread
 

Tanaka makes us instant contenders for the Central imho. Our hitting can't do anything but improve after last year and the moves we've made so far this off season (Abreu, Eaton, Davidson). Hell, as long as we don't give ABs to Dung, we've improved:r (even better his money comes off the books after next year)The kid really does have insane stuff though, so adding him with Sale would be a very nice 1, 2 punch. Not saying it's a slam dunk, tell the Tigers to go home type of move, but it certainly gets us winning again. At the very least, we don't have to worry about Fielder in the Central anymore!

Re: 2014 MLB Thread
 

The if is big, not the probably though:D

Re: 2014 MLB Thread
 

We can agree to disagree, My Brother. If the WS get Tanaka, perhaps we can even wager. ;)

Re: 2014 MLB Thread
 

It's likely the Sox don't get Tanaka, but say we do. How would you propose this wager work?

Re: 2014 MLB Thread
 

Good riddance!

Team that wins the Central gets a 10 count box of regular production, i.e. Monte #2s or PSD4s. If neither team wins the division, we both get nothing and like it. :D

Re: 2014 MLB Thread
 

I never said they would win the Central though, I said they'd be instant contenders:) I'll be down for some kind of a wager though if they get Tanaka. Maybe we could bet on if they can win 75-80 games??:r:r

Re: 2014 MLB Thread
 

75 or 80 wins don't make you a contender, Nate. :lr

Re: 2014 MLB Thread
 

They do in the Central. :D
