JoeRudi26 Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 This is how it works: Post a title of a book (using the most unimaginable irony you can think of) relating to Major League Baseball. A few examples: Title of the Book: Team Chemistry by Michael Barrett, illustrated by Carlos Zambrano Bunting for Average: Albert Pujols Winning The Big One - The Tampa Bay Devil Rays Speed on the Basepaths - Sean Casey This topic could be endless.. :) Link to comment https://www.mvpmods.com/forums/topic/30571-books-that-were-never-written/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

arossi12 Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 If it doesn't start with random stuttering and end in complete silence, Manuel didn't say it. Actually one of his finer quotes came today when asked of his whereabouts during the tarp fiasco at Coors: "In the dugout, of course. I'm the manager. Just 'cause I stutter sometimes and I got a southern accent doesn't mean I'm stupid." Don't ever complain about your managers to me again. Cherish your John Gibbonses and Joe Torres before Uncle Charlie makes a visit to your clubhouse.
