The only issue I have is that Tino doesn’t add anything from a players perspective that Kenny can’t. If it’s going to be Kay and Kenny, I’d like to have a pitcher or a catcher as the third man so they can give insight on the pitching side of the ball game.

…I’m pretty much going to use that same line when necessary in future relationships…

Rids, if you find it necessary to use that line for the same reason Grienke did, I submit you are dating the wrong guys!

I’m doing another fantasy draft later on tonight. Hopefully I can snag Tex or someone like that toward the tenth pick.

Cone was the man, but I think he said he wanted to spend more time with his family. I didn’t see the game today (live out of market), but I can only imagine how bad Tino was.

Coney left for whatever reason Apparently Tino is going to replace him… meh. I love the guy so much, but he just doesn’t have a broadcaster’s voice and his points are, as you said, pretty banal. He’s actually not TOTALLY terrible, though, which is more than you can say for his stints on ESPN. I think I can deal with him for now.

I do wish Cone was still there, very much. Does anyone know how much Leiter is gonna be in the booth this year, if at all?

Did anyone watch todays game where Javy pitched???

For the life of me, I can’t stand Tino Martinez as a color commentator. Great player, and great guy, but AWFUL announcer – cant understand a word he’s saying half the time and he repeats the same comments which a monkey could figure out.

Does anyone know if he’s the permanent 3rd wheel in the booth this season? WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED TO CONE-HEAD!? he was great.

And for him, it is “everything” in a very real way. Not just his livelihood, but probably _the_ defining aspect of his self-image.

That’s fine. Just to be clear, I agree that he should start and still see Joba in the rotation for 2011, I’m just saying the best 2010 team has him and Hughes in the pen. It’s a one year thing.

FWIW-Cash said the same thing, and then added the long term considerations. I think Cash framed the debate correctly.
