Center Ice was like that. Too bad the cost isn't 1/30 of the full package.

If you may recall, he was playing at third in the minors after washing out at catcher. The vibe was he was getting passed over becuase he wasn’t a GMNH draft pick AND GMNH drafted Pedro. Walker moved to second basically becuase there were no good players at second. I recall there being some thought his bat wasn’t good enough for third. But i feel like he hit better in the majors than in the minors, too.

El Blimpo. He's now Dr. El Blimpo.
Other hilarious rocco-isms:

"The carcass" I believe was rod barajas

"Poser" was chris resop

"The virus" was somebody (?)

A "maholm" is when a pitcher gave up a run in the half inning following the pirates scoring runs.

What else?
You forgot my favorite: Clint "Hopeless Wagner" Barmes.
