   I was watching and waiting for a transaction because I knew someone had to go to make room for Bush. Not surprised it was Feierabend since Bush is taking his spot tonight.

   I don’t think I ever told you this but I was talking to some Giants fans online after the Phillies dealt Brian Bocock to the Pirates organization. They said Bocock was once a highly touted prospect in the Giants organization but when he got rushed to the majors due to injuries it robbed him of an opportunity to develop as a hitter in the lower minors. Ever since then, whenever a ballplayer got called up before he was ready they refer to him as being “Bococked”. Another word to add to the baseball vocabulary along with “injured Valendia”, “Mendoza line” and others. .

     I googled that term and found a lot of folks using Bococked. Interesting. I created a “Glossary” page to record these terms.

     Feel free to suggest more 🙂

   When a relief pitcher comes in to close a game in a non-save situation (a lead of more than 3 runs) and blows the lead he committed a “Majewski”.

   commiting a ‘Kram’ – bragging about being first in the Triple Play contest only to immediately drop to 16th.
