It's delicious in a bottle/on tap, but I've never drank anything that wasn't piss out of a can before

perhaps you could explain sd's reasons for "disliking" it as well since you seem to be so in tune with other peoples minds

anyone remember the game from late september 1996 when mike williams threw at pedro martinez as retaliation for him plunking gregg jefferies?

Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

shtein, Benito Santiago was catching for the bums back in 96.  Pedro looked like he was 13.

Nope.  I was 20, living in Seattle and didn't even have basic cable.  Probably read about it the next day in the paper but this is probably the 1st time I've seen it.  It does reaffirm the man crush I've always had on Pedro through.

Junior year of HS...remember that one. I saw the highlights on Baseball tonight.

The worst announcer ever - FP Santangelo - comes in and cleans Benito up.

I used to have the same Phils jacket too. Comfortable as hell

Pedro is an all timer. The Karim Garcia incident is one of my faves

Because he deserved it.  I mean, the guy had a completely unnecessary 3rd g in his name.

He looked like shtein today.  Well in his defense it was a miserable, sultry 68 degrees in Clearwater at game time.

He's cooked. Velocity doesn't come back. I also notice his delivery is different this season. He used to bring the ball in towards his body before he started his delivery, now it's hanging out. His motion also isn't as fluid. I don't know if that is intentional or not but it's something that needs to be addressed.

I think they're intentionally trying to change his delivery/release to compensate for the dropped velocity, at least I thought I read something in that vein

He complained about feeling exhausted today.  Jesus Christ, its farging March 12!  What was he supposed to go today?  4, 5 innings?  I usually don't put an once of thought in Spring training as players are working on certain things, pitchers working on a new pitch or what ever, but to complain about exhaustion in March?  Not encouraging at all.  shtein, it's been sweater weather most of spring training.
