Inglett's scrappier

Look at Tug’s pic long enough and you can see he’d eventually apologize if he scrapped too hard.

Inglett wouldn’t though.

Inglett's got the five o'clock shadow and the dead eyes

whereas Tug has a sort of dorky goatee.

Tuglett is cheaper, but Inglett has already become what Tuglett hopes to be.

What is this, Horseville? Because I'm surrounded by naysayers.

They could both be Civil War reenactors

Tug is the battle-hardened regular who stops to pick up his wounded buddy as his unit falls back. Joe is the sniper who picks him off.

I failed my LSB ethics test.

They look like Rangers fans after they were told Tom Hicks

wanted to stay on as the owner.

I reject your reality and substitute my own.

I looked at the pics a second time after I read this

and it was hilarious.

I think I prefer Tuglett

Because we can call him Tuglett.
Inglett’s funny, but It’s more obvious and not quite as whimsically funny. Maybe if we called him Jinglett? Hmm.

Jinglett it is

at least for me.

Okay

now I’m not so high on the claim.

To the Red Sox I believe.

waiver claim I believe

Which one has more grit?

Clearly he’s better than anything we have now.

Wrapped in boxes so tight, sounding only at night as you sleep." ~Jeff Mangum; Neutral Milk Hotel

Give me the Inglett

Hmn

Snyder’s kind of a mini-Shoppach, but he’s owed 11.25 MM over the next two years (that’s if you buy out his 2012 option). Probably too rich for our blood.

That's total, not yearly

Just to be clear. 4.75 next year, 5.75 in 2011.

That does seem like quite a bit for a middling catcher though.

Going with Inglett..

…he’s shorter and when I look at him my eyes get irritated.

Why do you all have to tease these guys

At least they can say they played big league baseball
