He’s 1 for 3 with a walk tonight at Gwinnett.

Good evening San Diego, Im Ron Bergundy. Tits McGee is off tonight.

As someone who played baseball with glasses at times…that isn’t fun when he has to rip the mask off for a pop up

yeah, that sounds kinda bad…

As a catcher myself… lose the goalie helmet man. Those things are just a damn hindrance. We lose another of the “old school” catchers. Damn Charlie O’Brien.

I’ve seen guys wear sunglasses with the old school mask (me included), but I guess its a little different with normal glasses then.

with that little ’stache he has going on with his big blue eyes, he kinda looks like a peeping tom or something. ha

Man, now our catcher’s gonna get beat up and have his lunch money stolen by all the other catchers.

I hope he has MULTIPLE PAIRS. I give it 6 weeks before the glasses get squashed somehow.

Think ahead, guy.

Moreso, that the Braves are playing the Phillies where guys like Utley and Victorino have no problem going head or knee first into the catcher at a play at the plate.

No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.

yeah. The Thillies play very dirty

I. Want. The. Thillies. Now.

I remember McCann in the fetal position, with his arm twitching.....

…and The Flyin’ Faggot play-acting like he was concerned. Hopefully somebody sticks it to the astro-turd sometime this season (if not this weekend)

This entire year is fucking payback.

I got a bad feeling when i read that he was having trouble last night with getting the lenses “smeared” and that they were fogging up on him when he was batting. not good.

yeah…I just don’t think they’re gonna work out

by Smoltz's Beard on May 8, 2009 9:36 AM EDT up reply actions  

This has the capability of being one of those scenarios where if McCann just got the appropriate corrective lasik, he’d be back in a shorter time span than it would be to try all these corrective lenses, glasses, and catchers masks, before realizing that it’s just not working out and needing to get the corrective lasik.

Honestly, I still have no idea why he went on the DL in the first place if they weren’t planning on the surgery. I’m pretty sure Maddux had it during the season, and just had his next start pushed back a few days, it’s not like it’s something that would have had him missing a month.

by Lennox on May 9, 2009 12:59 AM EDT up reply actions  

goddamnit...........yeah, I'm thinking the same thing

If it’s not one thing….it’s something else. But at least Manny Ramirez wasn’t in our line-up.

I don’t wanna say it, but he looks old in that picture.

yeah the other 96 is that I am too good for everyone else.

by Lizziebeth on May 8, 2009 12:34 PM EDT reply actions  

would goggles not be better for under the mask?

seems like they would be less likely to come off if he needs to rip his mask off and the ones used in the NBA dont seem to fog up much

by Doghnut on May 8, 2009 1:04 PM EDT reply actions  

That's what I'm talking about

Brian McCann + Horace Grant goggles = $

by royhobbs on May 8, 2009 1:13 PM EDT up reply actions  

I’ve worn sunglasses under the normal catchers mask and didn’t have a problem with them. Just takes a little getting used to. The Ho-Grant goggles would be money though.
