Woot!

Beat me to it.
What was the point of even having him around anyway? We knew there was absolutely no role for him on this team.

I Believe
He was signed before Bedard was aquired. Perhaps even before Silva was signed, so they might have just wanted a back up plan to be sure.

An extremely horrible back up plan, but nevertheless.

Meanwhile, Soriano is throwing bullpen sessions at ST and preparing to become a premier closer for one of the best teams in the NL.......

Extremely horrible is right.
You would think they would have used RRS or Baek as the backup plan instead of Ho.

There are probably 10 LL regulars who could out pitch him after a few month's of working out. Probably not, but I hate Ho (the player, not the person).

Now Watch A Crappy NL Team Sign Him
and he goes 15-9. I could see the St. Louis Cardinals taking a flyer on him. Their SP is in shambles.

Since they are willing to eat 1/6th
of his salary this year, I wonder if this gives us any hope they'd be willing to do the same with Cairo.

Cairo is Willie's replacement
... when Willie replaces Lopez in the starting lineup once Jose has an 0-10 streak with some GIDPs.

But isn't that what the M's want him to do?
It weak ground balls to the right side, when all his power comes from pulling the ball?

"It" should be "hit".
Oops.

Uh ohz...
So, if he turns out to be Roy Halliday after all, then I'll need someone in Canada to help me escape from Bavasi.

Better late than never
But better not to do something stupid like signing him in the first place.

Ho fails to do his job and is released;
Governor Spitzer resigns, filled with sorrow, and possibly blue-balls.

Ho Out of Work; Gov Spitzer Resigns in Shame
-Ex-Gov. McGreevey says he wants to get 'Back in Action,' said to be impressed by Ho's ability to 'work quickly.'

Dickey Outduals Wang
A-Rod goes deep, but Wang is saddled by Dickey's knuckler.

"I've been around a long time," Dickey said, "I don't like it when Wang threatens my Prostatus."

...and now I'm here

by Librocrat on Mar 12, 2008 3:59 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

Ho pitched Sunday
against the D-Backs. He gave up 3 runs. His opponent gave up 4. So technically, in his last Mariners start, he outdueled Brandon Webb. That's the only good memory I have. So godspeed, Horacio. May you find a new place in the NL to suck.

Or Texas.
Or Oakland, when Harden gets hurt in his second start.

Yeah, she's a pimp!
