Here is mine:

Marc: So how do you guys like me being part owner of the Dolphins ?
Beltran: You should have been part owner of the Mets.
Pedro: You should buy me. I grew up under a mango tree, and I’m worth $6 million.
Johan Who is the little skinny guy with the white suit ?.

Mine (does suck count as a curse?)

Marc: “Hey Carlos, me and my wife love you, you’re our favorite player!”

Beltran: “Thanks man. I honestly think all your songs are terrible and that you have absolutely no talent in any capacity, but your wife has some nice assets.”

Anthony: “Um, thanks”

Beltran: “No dude, I mean you really, really suck. Like almost as bad as Johan’s speeches.”

Santana: “HEY, I’M A MAN, YOU CAN’T TALK ABOUT ME LIKE THAT!”

Martinez: "Johan, I have to be honest. When I first saw you in person, I literally thought to myself “Jesus, that is the ugliest lesbian I’ve ever seen”

Ummm...

Johan: “Please my friends let me introduce to you Yerry Seinfeld, famous Mets fan”

Beltran thought bubble: {I love his show but boy is he shorter than I thought}

Pedro thought bubble: {No way is that Seinfeld. This guy is an impostor who has hoodwinked Johan into giving him a free ticket. He will feel the wrath of Pedro. I will be his daddy}

This stinks, but whatever

Marc Anthony attempts to explain to his friends that all of their “extra appendages” combined are this big.

Mark Anthony: “after I told him I’m actually a singer, I don’t play baseball, Omar upped his offer to 3 years, $36 million”
Beltran & Pedro: “hahaha classic Omar”
Johan thought bubble: “I wish I had just re-signed with the Twins”

Here goes...

Carlos: What’s up, Marc?

Marc Anthony: Not much. I just want to release meaningful albums in September. How about you?

Carlos: Just enjoying a laugh about Steve Phillips. You see the woman he got caught with?

Marc Anthony: Yeah, we’re thinking of trying here out as a fullback with the Dolphins.

Carlos: And he says I’m not a flawless player.

Marc Anthony is such a prankster

Pedro Martinez (rear left), Carlos Beltran (left front), Johan Santana (right rear), enjoy a moment of levity while Marc Anthony (right front) tells them that the skin rejuvenation cream he sold Sammy Sosa, was actually plain skin bleach.

Carlos Beltran: Would you have better defense than Castillo?
Pedro Martinez: Groundballs and popups are Luis’ daddy.

Pedro and Johan: “Yeah, we got the money, you got the blow, right?”

Beltran and Marc Anthony erupt into a chorus of evil laughter. Pedro and Johan try to force a laugh—as if they understand what Beltran and Marc Anthony are laughing about—though they’re clearly nervous and very fearful.

Beltran: Johan has switched sides.

Marc: Sorry…My mole-stake
Beltran: What was that? Just get it out of your system.
Marc: No, I’m fine
Beltran: I insist, we’ll work together better if you…
Marc: MOLE! BLOODY MOLE! We’re not supposed to talk about the mole but there’s a bloody mole winking me in the face! I’m gonna chop it off, cut it up, and make some guac-a mooolee!
Beltran: Better?
Marc: Yeah…(pulls out stick and proceeds to poke the mole)

Johan Santana: while other celebrities turn to the clapper, he can turn the lights off just by looking at them.

Gas prices today are a lot like a pitcher's ERA. Anything under 3 is amazing, under 4 is pretty good and anything 5 and up is something you want to avoid.

Pedro: you know in the Dominican Republican, we have a whole different kind of cock fighting

lady suit

Beltran: Johan…are you wearing lady clothes?

Johan: No. This is a power suit.

Beltran: That there is a woman’s suit.

Marc Antony: Who makes it?

Johan: MISSterious. And it is mysterious because the buttons are on the wrong side, that’s the mystery.

Pedro: Look, it has shoulderpads…

Johan: It’s European, OK? It’s a European cut.

Pedro: Johan, the pants don’t have any pockets.

Johan: No, they don’t. Italians don’t wear pockets.

In response to deafening silences...

…by the home crowd at every 2009 game, the Mets produce an instructional video for fans demonstrating what to do when they play the “Everybody clap your hands” song at Citi Field.
