MLB Daily Thread: 9.1 deal-a-mummie: Baseball stuff happened yesterday

Print and re-print at your leisure.

Encarnacion continues to rake in a losing effort. Nats sink further into the abyss. Kansas City's Majick Numeral down to 20. Giants wetting themselves. Padres on a two-game win streak. Bawstun still can't wait for football.

Mets in first place in the month of September...might actually stick this time due to the ever-lovin' suckage of the division. Atlanta looks like they're aiming for the number one draft pick.

Baltimore, Detroit, and the Angels also tanking for picks. Why doesn't the Commissioner DO something???

That's not funny, hu. Not being able to fillet that bullpen breaks my little heart. I'm going to go hurt someone's feelings now.

Rangers need to end that SD win streak tonight. C'mon Gallardo! You're good enough, you're smart enough, and gosh darn it people like you!

I read an interesting piece in the NYTimes on Sunday about Buster Posey. Some dude took his children on a 10-day tour of rust belt ballparks. They were in Cincinnati for the Giants-Reds series, and Posey blew his kids off 2X for autographs. He said other Giants players stopped and signed both days. His kids left all disheartened an what-not. Something about lost innocence en shit.

I hear Buster's kind of a dick head when it comes to signing autographs. That's some bullshit. I'll give him a weak ass golf clap the next time I'm there just for those little ankle biters. I have a friend who ran into him & Jeremy Affeldt in the club section a couple years back and she said she got a similar treatment. Nobody was around, it wasn't like they were being hounded for autographs. Then Timmy Lincecum walked by & she asked him for an auto, and she said he was just the coolest mofo ever about it. Chatting, giving high fives, taking selfies.

I'll volunteer, but I only have one feeling.

Oh, but he's so HANDsome, isn't he???

To be fair, everyone is going to know who Posey is 20 years from now and Lincecum will be a trivia question.

If my name were Buster, I'd like to see it on paper as infrequently as possible.

Fuckin Buster... Why not just name him "cock sucking assbag?"

This. He's totally cool with fans. In fact, a few years ago the Giants were in Cleveland and he gave me a handy behind the dumpster at Jacob's Field.

Great guy.

Hells yeah!! That covers a MULTITUDE of sins!!

With his left or right hand?

 

[gb2]

Full disclosure, he used his mitt.

With you... I would, too. Can't be too careful. I bet that third nut gets all creepy and crawly, begging for attention.
<shudder>

They're going to know who Posey is because of that no-contact rule at the plate.
