Yeah, I was thinking about small, but instead went with fat. Mesa’s probably better on a drama. Team him with Dennis Farina and you have a top ten show.

I went with the smallest closer I could find for Arnold Jackson.

Can’t you see John Franco looking up at Rob Dibble and saying “Whatchoo talkin’ about, Dibble?”

Mrs. Garrett is a tough one to cast. Maybe Trevor Hoffman b/c everyone likes him.

I don’t know the right show for Jose Mesa but he deserves his own one. Maybe he’s Rosco P. Coltrane and Omar Vizquel and Robbie Alomar are the Dukes?

re: mental image — oh, I found that image sexy.

re: cast — John Franco is Mrs Garrett and Jose Mesa is Gary Coleman. Puh-lease.

I think Bob the mental image of Lee Smith making sweet love to a lady on Jeff Reardon’s face might have been the one he found objectionable.

If baseball closers = Diff’t Strokes cast members, it would be…

Lee Smith = Todd Bridges
Jeff Reardon = Dana Plato
John Franco = Gary Coleman
Rollie Fingers = Mr. Drummond
Rob Dibble = The Gooch
Lee Smith’s Sweet Love Partner = Janet Jackson (Willis’ girlfriend Charlene).

So based on those analogies, its Todd Bridges making love to Janet Jackson on Dana Plato’s face. That’s almost as hot as the pre-analogy version…

Lee Smith is black (or African-American for the PC folks out there). That dude up there closed games and robbed jewelry stores for a living.

That Lee Smith image is so horrible I may never be able to get that ut of my mind. Thanks.

Grey finally found a fellow Karabell hater. Isn’t that cute…

I’ve got Posada in two leagues and I wouldn’t trade him for Soto. Per Cory’s point, you need to look at all categories and I think Mauer’s lineup slot and Posada’s team put them in better position for 80 R and 80 RBI. With maybe 10 SB, Mauer should make up the HR difference in value.

I rank them Posada, Mauer, Soto…

BTW, I love how you tried to reason with him with stats. Karabell (ESPN, for that matter) doesn’t deal in stats.

Wow, what a turd baby that Karabaloney wrote today. He takes the cake, then rubs it on his nose because he’s a moron.

I’ve been to Hyde Park. Its one of those clubs where every girl has fake tits and every guy has a tight t-shirt with skulls on it or something metro/homo. The worst part is, they will actually make you stand on a line outside for no reason just to get in. Like, if you don’t have enough girls with you. They ACTUALLY have you stand outside and wait like idiots to get into their club. There will be guys just standing there, waiting, without any idea why or how long its gonna take. I was dragged there, kicking and screaming, by my gf, and I will never ever go back there. I really thought that only happened on tv.

Anyway, I think you should discuss how Karabell today says Soto belongs ahead of Mauer in the pecking order. If you read the comments, mine is the one blasting him.
