… and he tears a ligament while signing his contract.
I was waiting for this to happen
Good. Hopefully he can pitch in August and September when games don’t matter to give him a chance for ’13
Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.
Its a minor league deal, no fooling taking place.
Wasnt last years deal a minor league one as well? Either way, theres no fooling that Young will not stay healthy. If they spent 1 dollar on him its 1 dollar wasted
Poor guy. Young, Much like Webb, is great pitcher that just can’t stay healthy. Tisk Tisk
like this one
Isn’t it also used for something that’s “a shame” (as in “too bad”)?
That was probably @BrickTops:disqus ‘ intention, I’m thinking.
No, I think you’re in the right about this one.
wait isn’t it tsk tsk, not tisk tisk?
This is becoming a heated discussion.
