Okay Homer, show us your stuff
You too, Jonny. We pined for you, fought for you. Make the most of your opportunity.
Looks like Walt finally woke up from his coma

holy cow
Not just Homer, but Fisher and Gomes, too?
FTH?
All Things Bubba: Because how can you not love a baseball player named Bubba?
I'm guessing
Ramirez is not available out of the bullpen, so they needed another arm to cover for Massett.
And Gomes because it was long overdue.

Alright Johnny
Let’s get nasty…
I want an on-field melee before the end of the month.

I sooooooooooo wish he would have been here for the Escobar incident

We finally got some brawlfense

Yep, still worked
I laugh every fucking time. Pavlov would be proud.

The Reds finally got a Cerrano..

Hooray
I’m going to celebrate these moves by getting completely obliterated this weekend.

Since there hasn't been a Reposter yet
Mo Egger’s father passed away this week and he wrote a great piece about it. Give it a look.
"It seems as if every mistake I've ever made in life I've had an erection in one hand and a Bud Light in the other."
You'd think I would look first
But you would be wrong.
"It seems as if every mistake I've ever made in life I've had an erection in one hand and a Bud Light in the other."
what's a Fanpost?

This made my pretty crappy day much, much better
No, Jonny Gomes isn’t a savior, no this team isn’t suddenly a ton better, but yes, at least the front office is awake and is recognizing guys who deserve a shot.
I feel much better about things than I did yesterday.
In honor of this and the sombrero pic, it’s strong-ass margaritas for me tonight.
OLE!
Isn't there a slanket somewhere you should be filling with your farts?

And people say i lack taste and good borders...
(Pretty darn funny though)

say hello to the Burger King, Jonny Gomes!

this is inspiring
Fisher’s FIP in AAA this year is 1.73. that’s just 18.2 innings, but that is some serious work. it’s pretty amazing to see just how far this bullpen has come over the last few years.

I'm happy with this.
Not quite as happy as when “Two Pitch At-Batterson” was DFA’d, but happy.
I don't need a hot breakfast to have a good time.

hey
That looks like Bronson Arroyo’s facial hair, upside down.
All Things Bubba: Because how can you not love a baseball player named Bubba?
Didn't he mean a McFlurry of moves?
From Fay’s sub:
Flurry of moves announced today by Cincinnati:
OF Jonny Gomes’ contract purchased from Louisville. OF Darnell McDonald designated for assignment. Optioned to Louisville RHP Ramon Ramirez, recalled RHP Carlos Fisher and RHP Homer Bailey; officially placed on DL RHP Edinson Volquez retroactive to 5/17.
Isn't there a slanket somewhere you should be filling with your farts?
I love the first comment
I think you need to step your game up Tom. A flurry of moves just announced at 3:00 pm? Is that way everyone knew about this 5 hours ago?
I guess they’re missing the Fay…
All Things Bubba: Because how can you not love a baseball player named Bubba?
Apparently, Friday is the day to make your DFAs
Dusty: You’re gonna lay off Darnell McDonald?
Walt Jocketty: Oh yeah, we’re gonna bring in some AAA folks, farm some work out to Singapore, that’s the usual deal.
Bob Castellini Standard operating procedure.
Dusty: Does he know this yet?
Walt Jocketty: No. No, of course not. We find it’s always better to fire people on a Friday. Studies have statistically shown that there’s less chance of an incident if you do it at the end of the week.

I was let go on a Tuesday :(

You should have caused an incident

Two Wednesdays, and a Friday when I wasn't there

i thought this was a Madville post
other people write scripts to events, real or imagined?!?!?

Eh, I just took the actual lines and modified very slightly to fit this scenario.
I try to stay out of mads’ specialties, for the most part
