Anybody else get a kick out of watching Tino Martinez stumble through opening day coverage?
He could be good... eventually.

I respect Tino as a person and player from what I know about him....but he's never been a smooth linguist. In his playing days, he'd do interviews all hyper and stuff; stumbling through words, and slurring a little. Like his mind was going twice as fast as his tongue could move. Hopefully he settles down a bit, and just takes his time when explaining stuff, cause he's got a ton of knowledge. Only problem I have with new guys coming on like that, is they're gonna be straight arrowed company men, and not say what's really on their mind about certain players. Gets rather old.Originally posted by grieve -
He was absolutely awful. He made me yearn for Rob Dibble. He couldn't spew platitudes fast enough.Buck O'Neil: The Monarch of BaseballComment
