      This comment is about as horrible as the Houston Astros organization are as a whole.

        Gibbons would hit third for us.

    My first reaction?  I thought I followed baseball well, yet I thought Gibbons retired about 4 years ago.  I need to shape up.

    My friend was in the 2010 Triple-A Home Run Derby (as a high school senior) & had more HRs than Gibbons had

    I read all the comments in surprise that people had commented on Jay Gibbons being signed.  This guy was terrible in his prime now he’s old.

    After reading through the comments on the post, I’ve seen more comments removed than posted.  Please, it’s a minor league signing.  If he produces and gets called up fantastic.  If not, I don’t know if any of you will start burning your Nashville Sounds jerseys and say, “My life is over…I have nothing to live for…I’m going to switch allegiances and start following the Indianaplois Indians.”  Drama queens.
