I'm not so sure.....
that rally zoo tour guide is ready for a bump in the corporate ladder, if we are basing her projected increase do to successful rallys, there is no way
however if we are basing her increase due to the inverse cleavage clause well, then she can be VP of the rally zoo!!!
by MarioVanPeebles Republic of China on Jun 4, 2009 5:37 PM EDT reply actions
yeah, her role in the zoo is being "re-evaluated" at the moment
i’ve kept the rally zoo quiet lately (due to lack of rally options when you’re down 7 runs before you can blink)……..but she is definitely in line for a promotion.
by Fernando Vina School of Linguistics on Jun 4, 2009 5:39 PM EDT up reply actions
oh of course....
Only if there was some Rally animal that could undo what has been done, to the extent that the Royals allow to be done to them, then there is no reason to let out the zoo…..

he did just strike out BJ Upton with a nasty pitch, tho
I still would have taken him out… but with how bad the bullpen has been, it does make you wonder if they’re reliable

I’ve tried putting my head around it and I can only come to the conclusion that they don’t care.
Time to blow this team up

Trade Jacobs to anyone that will have him. Eat his entire salary is you have to.
Bring up Kila from Omaha. DFA Ramirez and maybe Mahay. Bring Hochevar up and stick him in the bullpen. It does him no good putting all those miles on his car going up and down I-29 all the time. I just want a reason to want to pay attention to these guys again. This has gotten to the beyond the point of ridiculous. Is June 4 and they’ve already had two losing streaks of at least 6 games. The only good thing to happen this week is Detroit getting swept otherwise they’d be 10 games out now.
I think those are Dayton's toys
