Please Please Please Please Please!

From SI's Jon Heyman (via MLBTR, of course):

The Red Sox had been looking at Eric Hinske [sic]. But he may not be a perfect fit now that they probably need a centerfielder. Hinske [sic] had a terrific year with the Rays in 2008 (20 home runs) but is caught up in a market flooded with power hitters. At least one team in Japan has allegedly shown interest in him.

Japan Japan Japan Japan Japan!

Yeah, I know, Japan is pretty seriously awesome, but it's still baseball exile, and I just can't help but feel like Shitske and Mench tearing up NPB next year would be too seriously fucking perfect.

22 rational and reasonable comments:

a terrific year?

wheeler said...

oh, and Shitske is an anti-semite

How's the cheese in Japan? Anyone?

Inske is an anti-semite? U are kidding? Now I like that man! It's ironic how Japan can afford Hinske, But the Kanadian Jays cannot. It is the sweet irony to have multi-millionaires who are cheapskate WASPS who are stingier than we Krauts. It is embarrasiing all around. I wonder what piece of Seisse(shit to all non-Aryans) JP will bring in next week? Hinske is too good to get a minor league deal but bad enough to go to Japana. Good for that aryan ,boy. Japanaese are nice people, who are pure. They will like that foul smelling, kraut eating, Wurst sucking Hinske. A nice little aryan boy.....

PS Can we trade Cito Dorito to Japan, too?

I like how Heyman says one team in Japan has "allegedly" shown interest in him, as if it were a crime.

Hinske will be teaching English in Japan by mid-season.

And the comments continue to go down the drain. Well, you guys had a good thing going here while it lasted.

Oh, it's easy to ignore anything you want, really. I know what you mean though.

It could be that these commenters are actually part of an underground fundamentalist Christian group that espouses Creation Science that are covertly trying to undermine the concept of natural selection by their very existence.

That muffled thudding noise you hear is Darwin turning over in his grave.

Is this website on like, a white supremacist webring? What's going on here?

mike from ottawa said...

Hey, don't lump me in with these weird anonymous folks. I'm not sure what to make of this infiltration by people who think even facetious references to neo-Nazi activity is funny, but the blog is still good. I keep my comments free of that nonsense*, and they're always well informed**.


* this is true
** this, maybe not so much

I still don't get why you guys hate Hinske. He was alright for us, and the dude always played hard.

The funny thing is--they're not exactly doing a good job of proving white supremacy.

Unless they're saying they're superior mentally to a developmentally-delayed Irish Setter that has undergone a lobotomy in which case it's too close to call.

I don't know if Hinske would be able to get enough beer in japan.

Torgen said...
