    LOL Good stuff Bell.

    I like the alternate uniforms (pink, blue, etc.), but MLB is going overboard with all the 'gimmicks'.

    It's time to put a stop to it and go back to traditional.

    He should change his name.

    "It's also a simple and indisputable fact that WAR isn't the be-all end-all in valuations, especially in real life. Wanna know why? Because an ace in run-prevention for 120 innings means more often than not, a sub-standard pitcher covering for the rest of the IP that pitcher fails to provide. You can't see value in a vacuum when a player does not provide full-time production."

    Especially after posting a .474 OPS in rookie ball. Maybe he should go by JD Murdered...

    - From the 2004 ALCS Game 4 Gamethread. A reminder that no game is over until the final out is recorded, and things will always get better. Misspellings unchanged as a reminder that Yankees fans are just terrible.

    Might be even better if he used his middle name - Casey.

    Damien Magnifico is the best name ever. He sounds like a Latino superhero. I can't even say his name without slipping into a Latino accent.

    Pronouncing his last name with a Latino accent is easy.

    I'm having trouble with Damien.

    With that name, he should be a starring Siempre El Domingo. Or whoever stars on that show should change their name to Damein Magnifico

    Or better yet- that is the name that should have been given to Mandy Patinkin's (most clunky, awkward name ever, BTW) characheter in The Princess Bride.
