Turner's handle is pretty sweet

but a distant third behind Vaughn’s and Dekker’s (that pun is awful.)

Is Vaughn diabetic?

by wobatus on Mar 22, 2011 10:13 AM EDT reply actions

indeed he is

by Rob Castellano on Mar 22, 2011 10:26 AM EDT up reply actions

Type 1. He’s got the electronic pump on his hip.

My nephew

may have a new favorite prospect. He’s 16, big Mets fan. His mother, my sister, died a few years ago. She’d had juvenile diabtes since she was an infant. Had to take insulin by injection twice a day. My parents were only in their early 20s. They had to give the injections until she was old enough to do it herself. I learned in case of emergencies but never had to.

Cool

Yeah, they didn’t have the pump in common use to my knowledge when my sister was younger. We’re talking early 1960s.

Who's dedicated enough to make a fake Pat Misch account on Twitter?

How many followers could they have gotten, anyway?

Thole mentions that

Dubs is on Twitter, but I don’t know what name he uses. Beltran is wearing so much makeup in his profile pic, it’s unreal.

by deadspy3 on Mar 22, 2011 11:54 AM EDT reply actions

hahaha

Sorry, the makeup just doesn’t seem right.

Kicking knowledge in the face.

by BlackOps on Mar 22, 2011 12:53 PM EDT up reply actions

not sure

I think he just ‘guest tweeted’ on Thole’s account one day about basketball.

den Dekker plays Words With Friends, often on the bus trips to away games.

Turner’s been seen at Vine and Barley with Kai Gronauer.

Doug Sisk's twitter account is hysterical

@DougSisk

Most young pitchers need to learn how to throw outside the strike zone. Some call it “selective wildness”. Ollie Perez had that rare gift

I’m trying to show the younger #Mets pitchers how to throw at the batter in the on-deck circle. Not as easy as it sounds

Pitchers & Catchers is a couple days away and my invite must’ve gotten lost in the mail. I better catch a Greyhound Bus to Port St. Lucie.

Is it a fake? I dont know… stupid me if it is.

At 5:30 PM EDT today Starting today at 5:00 PM EDT, witness one of the greatest renderings of visual sound effects ever!

UPDATE 1: My browser has crashed several times in the process from all the rants (FUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!) - as a result, there will instead be 4 or 5 separate installments of fxcarden's Nightly Rants! from 2011, with a similar pattern for the 2012 rants. Take my word for it, when I say that it's for the best. Here's the revised schedule:

Volume 1: 2011
No. 1: Today at 5:00 PM EDT
No. 2: Tomorrow
No. 3: Thursday
No. 4 and No. 5 (?) TBD

UPDATE 2: Vol. I, No. 1 (July, 2011) is now up!
