Yankee Pitchers

First of all, I just got back from an Iron Maiden concert, and it was brilliant.  Iron Maiden is always worth seeing (I've not seen them before, but they were good enough I'm willing to extrapolate).

Star-divide

So, the Yankees used six pitchers tonight, and I have literally never heard of four of them.  Who are these people?  Joba Chamberlain and and Edwar Ramirez I know, but:

  • Dan Gliese
  • Jose Veras
  • Chris Britton
  • LaTroy - what?  LaTroy Hawkins is a Yankee?  I saw Hawkins and figured it was someone else.  Of course I know who LaTroy Hawkins is.

This FanPost is a lot less relevant than it was when I started.

I believe they got Chris Britton for Jaret Wright.

Also, where did you see Maiden at? Lucky son of a bitch.

I hate baseball.

Good question. I have no idea.

All I know is that he has not pitched in the majors this year.

I hate baseball.

Free Agent

Was traded to the O’s for Britton, then was a non roster invite for the Pirates after the O’s dumped him, but declined to go to the minors. I have this is how Jarrod Washburn’s career will end up, minus the Mariners not being smart enough to trade him.

Vancouver, BC

Pacific Colisseum (where the Balboa-Drago fight in Rocky IV was filmed, as it happens).

Let’s see if I can get this song list right:

Transylvania
Aces High
2 Minutes to Midnight
Wasted Years
The Trooper
Can I Play With Madness
Heaven Can Wait
The Rime of the Ancient Mariner
Powerslave
The Number of the Beast
Fear of the Dark
Iron Maiden
- encore -
Moonchild
The Clairvoyant
Hallowed Be Thy Name

I think that’s it. I might have one or two things out of order.

I like using semi-colons; they make me feel smart.

That sounds awesome.

I’m seeing Maiden in Germany of all places (live in seattle) in August… part of the Wacken Open Air Metal Festival. Can’t wait.

Iron Maiden tour plane


My most recent trip to France was supposed to on this plane (it was still operating commercially for a few days in between the exterior getting painted and the interior getting re-fitted). Unfortunately one of the tow tractors crashed into the wheels whilst the plane was getting prepped so we ended up taking a boring plane instead.

Do they need Washburn or Silva?

I can give them up if they need them.
