Then again, my choice of Eck is another favorite of Gibby's.

Have to agree Goose is my all time fav, but Trevor Time is right there for me. Nobody has a better intro them Trevor, it was pretty awesome to be at the Q and now Petco when they blast Hell's Bell's as he makes his way to the field and during his warm up throws.

Funny story about Goose during his San Diego tenure. At the time the Padres were owned by Ray and Joan Kroc, founders of McDonalds, Joan decided to ban beer from the clubhouse. Goose's comments to press, (not an exact quote, but close enough), "We can't have a fucking beer after a game in the clubhouse and they are poisoning the country with their hamburgers." That definately pissed off the owners, and probably hastened his departure from the team.

i went from throwing hard to a junkball pitcher from watching him. i went sidearm for everything. from throwing to 1st, to winging it in from outfield.

that impressionable cocksucker!

I was thinking about him but I thought he was a starter.

I did the same thing pitching wise. That side arm pitch really fucked with kids when you threw one every 5-7 pitches. Nice jammer pitch but I think the release was more disruptive than the pitch itself.

Gagne shreds all, hopefully the career survives.

For sheer entertainment at the ballpark, no one beats Eric Gagne's dominance from 2002-2004. I'm not sure we'll see that again from him or anyone else.

When I was a kid, I hated Gossage because he was a Yankee and then later a Padre. Looking back now, he was one tough bad ass and I respect the hell out of his accomplishments.
