Getting to know Dave Eiland
ByAnthony McCarron of the Daily News profiles the Yanks’ new pitching coach. The coolest part of the article is that McCarron referred to Phil-Joba-IPK as “The Big Three,” a moniker I do believe we originated here at RAB.

Thanks Mike.

I’ve used “the big three” subconsciously a couple of times on my blog. It’s catchy, I think you guys have started something
Yep , kudos to you for a catchy and hopefully profound nickname
Nice read btw ,
Now if I could only get credit for IPK, that shizz is everywhere!
about 6 months ago, i started calling Alex Rodriguez “A-Rod”. like J-Lo.
i’m still waiting for the credit.
Sam Elliot at Lohud on Phil Hughes. It’s reading articles like this that make the Santana non trade special

Way to go with creating the term Big 3. It’s super creative, and has never been used in any other context in the history of life.

I just randomly had a good one last week “Bronx Bombers” for the Yankees. This is because they play in the Bronx, and they hit the ball pretty hard…
i’m picking up a hint of sarcasm.
this from a guy calling himself ejeezy. how’s the view from that glass house, bro?
The view is crystal clear…bro

Seriously, though… Joba, Ian, Phil… how about “The Notorious J.I.P.?”
Now THAT is an original moniker…
Not for nothing, but anytime there’s a group of three people that have some distinction, it seems they’re referred to as the Big Three.
Me and two of my coworkers that all started off at the level and went to the same college are referred at our office as the “Big Three”
If these guys want a catchy nickname, Big Three isn’t probably the way to go since its used in a million different other things.
Not trying to rain on anyone’s parade, just saying its hard to invent the term Big Three.
