    KuchiKoo should be our third pitcher in the playoffs.

    Come on man. It is so disrespectful to do that to his name. It's not some cool nickname or twist - its not even shorter to write. Its the written equivalent to squinting your eyes and saying 'me love you long time'. I expect it from our "urbanization is ruining America" contingent that hangs out in D&D, but you are normally better than that.

    “Me love you long time” was said by a Vietnamese person.

    Spencer embraces it and actually uses it.

    Big difference.

    He's the reason we are making the playoffs. It was a good trade.

    I was wrong. One of the best pitcher acquisitions in franchise history. I love the guy.

    Just imagine how good he would be if he didn't give up 1st inning HRs.

    JV does the same thing. Something about fly ball pitchers.
