I was looking through some baseball stuff this morning and came across David Bell's name. I had forgotten he was a Brewer only a few years ago. Does anyone else have players like that? I'm not talking about Julio Mosquera types who were around for a handful of games and left.

Kevin Seitzer.

Not sure why. Every time his name is mentioned in a Mug or I see a Seitzer related log-in name, I think “Oh yeah, I remember that guy.”

Seitzer was the bomb shit

Be cool, and relax. Take a breath, take ten paces back.

The coolest motherfunker on the planet.

Catolanotto will be that guy in a few years for me.

I already am surprised everytime I hear his name.

Felipe Lopez might end up being that guy too...

… assuming, as appears likely, he departs in free agency.

Frank won me over...

…with his choice of walkup song. I didn’t even like Your Love when it was released in the 80s, but like every other woman in Miller Park, I couldn’t not join in when Josie was on a vacation far away.

So that’s what I’ll think of when I hear Catalanotto’s name.

You've got a couple screws missin' up in your toolbox, if you think that you'll stop this man from hittin' moonshots.

It is pretty awesome

Especially when they cut the music and you hear everyone singing the rest of it.

Yep

I was half ready to throw down $ for a Catalanotto player tee, largely to commemorate the crowd’s musical synergy when he walks up (and partly for the sheer length of his name) – but for some crazy reason the Brewers didn’t print tees for him. Jorge Julio, Felipe Lopez, sure. Frankie the Cat? Robbed.

Same here

If only because I still mix him up with David Dellucci.

Something about a tic-tac-toe playing chicken

Dude..

I always thought a tic-tac-toe playing chicken could out-stratergize Ned Yost — but then, I thought firing Ned Yost would lead to a downward spiral in gas prices as well.

Yeah, Mike Lamb

Also Eric Young, Rick Cerone, Lenny Harris, Mark Sweeney (whom I regularly confuse with Mike Sweeney), Julio Franco and Jesse Orosco.

We could have a whole ’nother thread on guys who I wish I could forget were Brewers once.

Someone needs to start a list...

A couple of others that popped into my head…
Tom Brunansky
Jeff Leonard
Tony Fernandez
Dave Valle
Jim Abbott
Mark Davis (the former Cy Young winner)
Rob Dibble

In 93 I saw Brunansky give the most justifiably angry curtain call I've ever seen a player make.

He hit a game winning HR in County Stadium after being booed loudly at the beginning of the at bat. Of course everyone stood up and cheered until he came out of the dugout with his head down waved his hat and then vanished back into the dugout.

I was sort of impressed he didn’t just flip us all off. Bruno wasn’t very good anymore by the time he got to Milwaukee and people’s expectations were more than he could meet.

Personally, I don't give a crap about Brett Favre.

My most memorable Todd Ritchie moment was when I heard on the radio “Ritchie out for the season” (or something to that effect) flipping out because I thought they meant Richie Sexson.

by richardhkirkando on Oct 15, 2009 12:37 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

er, that should read “and I started flipping out”
