MLB.com: Three more pitchers invited to camp

TAMPA, Fla.—The Yankees announced invitations to big league camp on Wednesday for three additional right-handed pitchers, increasing the total number of players scheduled to report to 63.

J.B. Cox, George Kontos and Kanekoa Texeira will report with the rest of the Yankees’ pitchers and catchers on Friday, as the club opens camp at George M. Steinbrenner Field.

New thread.

Hell has been harrowed.

Texeira winds up….delivers…weak come-backer to Texeira…fires to Texeira for the out.


I’m excited about Cox and Kontos.  Both are good-to-great names.

It actually should read “Texeira winds up….delivers…weak come-backer to Texeira…fires to Teixeira for the out.”

“Texeira winds up….delivers…weak come-backer to Texeira…fires to Teixeira for the out.”

It’s like a scene from that movie Being Mark Texeira.

Stupid spelling mistake messing up my lame joke.  Drat.

I know just how you feel.

I don’t know anything about K. Tex—can anyone fill me in?

Never mind, I used teh Google.

Boy, that trade was a heist.

sweet, new thread.  did you guys here that Alomar used to inject steroids into his penis?

You mean into his Barry.

teh Google

Is that like teh Facebook?

“teh Facebook”

Yes, only old people are allowed to use it.

what the hell is “google”?

Holy crap. I’ve been logged in since last night.
I checked on you lads while at work and never saw evidence of my lack of logoutedness.
Sorry about Robbys pelican. Thats rough.
Spitting more may have helped. sorry.
no i’m not.

You know what’s weird?  When I started to write Kanekoa Texeira in the search window in the Firefox menu bar, it immediately suggested his full name.

Old Thurman, how did your long log-in feel—exhausting?  Or invigorating?

Ped’s helped. Some Yoo Hoo and a greenie. I’m chillin.
Someone please call me. I want to talk.

Old Thurman, how did your long log-in feel—exhausting?  Or invigorating?

More importantly, natural or performance enhanced?

This thread has gotten out of control fast.  I mean, that escalated quickly.

Oh great, my joke got thwarted. Again.

Kontos HR rate don’t look that great, or I could be reading it wrong.

Fgas going the Larry Flynt route.
Well done lad.

I mean, that escalated quickly.

Just like Robby’s Barry!

Back to baseball!  Is K-Tex for real?

I’m pretty sure he’s not a figment of Cashman’s imagination, but that might not be what you’re asking.

He’s no Sidd Finch, that’s for sure.

I’m excited about Cox and Kontos.  Both are good-to-great names.

Don’t blame me. . .I voted for Kodos

I see that the top post now appears in the Recent Comments display - cool.

Back to baseball!  Is K-Tex for real?

CAIRO projects him to be decent, 4.36 ERA.  CHONE is harsher, 5.36 ERA.  His scouting reports are pretty good, a sinker/slider guy with decent velocity but his command is sketchy.

Way back in the 20th century, Bill James wrote the first essential book about baseball managers. Chris Jaffe has just written the second.

From now on, whenever I have a question about a manager, Jaffe's book will be the first and last one I reach for.

John Brattain Memorial Fund

The Hardball Times has set up a memorial fund for John Brattain's family. He left behind a wife and two teenage daughters.

Four years ago, I found from personal experience how generous the online community can be to its own in their hour of need. I am now literally begging you to be even more generous than you were to me.
