• Amaury Marti Watch

    Amaury Marti is currently hitting .424/.509/.633 in 39 games for the Mexican Red Devils of the Mexican League, also known as Liga de Amaury Cazana. Bud Selig ordered the Cardinals to banish him to there, in fear of the major leagues losing competitive balance.

    Amaury also refuses to accept the watch curse. He has the power to curse, and the power to bless.

Moniker Madness!

It’s a tourney for the best minor league name at MiLB.com. My vote: Sharlon Schoop all the way. I would’ve voted for Jorge Poo Tang, but I can’t find him at First Inning or the Cube, so until then I have to believe he’s made up.

  1. I’ve been a fan of Will Startup’s for a while, for reasons of even parts funny name and solid pitching.

    I’m guessing that Arquimedes Euclides Caminero’s parents were hoping for a mathematician instead of a ballplayer.

    Here’s Jorge Poo Tang’s page. I don’t know what his parents were hoping for.

  2. Ah ha! A VSL’er, maybe that’s why he wasn’t found at the Cube. That’s…well that just wrong. Maybe my last name could mean vagina in some other country, but if i ever moved there, i’d have to change it, no?

  3. ok, whoever you are, i accidently deleted your comment here on a post before i read it, please, try posting it again. Sorry!

  4. You deleated me! Interesting stuff at Fangraphs. If, probably more like when, they put Albert in the HOF, that Easter Sunday performance needs to be noted in the induction speech. One of the greatest performances ever in one game.

    Oh, and the Reds have a prospect, I believe 16th in the latest BA book, named Jon Countlangus. Anyway you pronounce it, funny.

  5. I’m upset they didn’t pick Augustus Hlebovy for their moniker tourney :P
