2007 NL ROY: Ryan Braun

Yeah, I Figured That Much congratulates Brewers third baseman Ryan Braun for becoming the 2007 National League Rookie of the Year.

“Let’s just hope he doesn’t turn into another Pat Listach,” JDot tells YIFTM. “That guy’s rookie ain’t worth shit!”

(The following was cut and pasted from a brewers.com email)

Brewers third baseman Ryan Braun became the first Brewers Rookie of the Year since Pat Listach in 1992 on Monday, edging out Rockies shortstop Troy Tulowitzki in the closest finish in history.

Braun, called up on May 25, batted .324 and led NL rookies with 34 home runs and a .634 slugging percentage, breaking the Major League rookie record set by Mark McGwire, who slugged .618 for Oakland in 1987. Braun drove in 97 RBIs and stole 15 bases.

Does Bucho play in the AL then?

This guy comes across as a cock.

Research shows his boyhood idol was Rickey Henderson.

Nothing else needs to be said.

gdub said...

no, he plays in the NL - Narcotics League.

because he sells drugs, using little guitaristas as a front to his massive mexicano cartel.

I've been watching b-roll of this movie all last week.

It got me to watch Arrested Development. That and wish I'd have gone along for the interview with Natalie.

How's the script coming along?

Matthew said...

Good. If by that you mean watching HGTV and then going shopping and putting up more shit in the house. Pretty good actually.

Fuck the Cubs?
Spoken like a truly Bitter Brewers Fan who's team had a commanding lead in their division, and then blew it quicker than a five-dollar whore.

See ya next year at Wrigley North!

I want a recount!!!

How can they overlook his numerous errors?

In the last few crucial games of the season Braun's
"defense" killed them.
