do you ever yearn?

[YGIFS 19445]

I don't think so, but I like where your bobblehead is at.  Some guys mentioned by name only (probably due to scheduling conflicts or having been dead for 50 years).  Some guys on camera but never named individually.  And a number of guys got both.  

And then you got your truly rare instance.  Phil Rizzuto.  Mentioned by name, multiple times.  Voice heard over the visual shot.  But not his physical self (even though he was alive and well at the time). HOLY COW!

I don’t think his name was mentioned.

OF has to be Mantle, Ken Griffey Jr, and DiMaggio.

Good call.  Actually fuck Bonds, that steroid freak pussy.  Mantle at DH, Dimaggio and Ruth out there with Griffey.
And it was Irabu, but it was Frank yelling it out in the courtroom during finale when Steinbrenner was on the stand.

Fuck I went right past this one…

[McCroskey 1483]

I’m struggling to come up with 3rd basemen.

OF is absolutely loaded.

Oh then mention his name.  He's a regular "talking Nixon"

if your name isn't mentioned, but you appear-obviously Jeter is the SS.  But 2b, 3b, and SP are harder than you'd think.

I would also put Mattingly at 1B over Hernandez, but no one is going to replace Gehrig.

[YGIFS 19445]

Surely in all those Yankee/Met talks, one fucking guy played one fucking game at 3b?  We also need to decide on a SP.  I'm not not stealing your ideas to win a contest or anything, I swear.  Showalter and I have an understanding.......................and Mattingly just split his pants /ripMcCarver

How could you give $12 million dollars to Hideki Irabu?!?

Yeah, I didn't wanna cheat and look it up.  I was torn between Irabu and Matsui and remembered Matsui probably came to play after the show had ended.  

I don't know how anyone could forget Frank's pronunciation of Hideki Irabu.  The awkward pauses, the stress on certain syllables...it was delicious.

Tons of 1st basemen.  Baseball reference tells me Joe Pepitone and Moose Skowron were also 1st sackers.

I'd roster Mookie as a pinchrunner/defensive replacement.

Clete Boyer for 3B.  He was also at the fantasy camp.

I'd make Ruth my starting pitcher and free up an OF spot.  No DH.

Damn, well done on Clete Boyer

[YGIFS 19445]

Yeah, not only is that an obscure Seinfeld recall, that’s an obscure baseball recall.  Kramer/the writers remembering him before baseball-reference.com is impressive.  Man, that Cosmo is so prolific!

I mean the infielder’s name is Clete?  That’s like a library cop’s name being BookMan!

Just sat down at a bar and one of the bartender’s names is Koko.

Now she prob thinks I’m some kind of asshole because I snickered when I saw that simultaneous to her asking me what I wanted to drink.

Vandelay Industries episode.  When George calls Jerry's apartment after the meeting at the unemployment office to tell him he has to answer "Vandelay Industries" and Kramer hangs up on him.  The audio is perfect.

"Kramer!  Nooooo!" and it cuts off halfway through the No!!!!

Also, pretty sure the daughter of the unemployment lady is wearing the mohair sweater from the Sniffing Accountant episode.

Biff's reading comprehension is impacted when he embraces his mantra, "Here's to feeling good.....all the time."  

So many great little moments in that bar scene which included the John Hughes Muse...John Kapelos, also that sweater.  But when Michael Richards gets hit in the head by the bar, milks the laugh for the perfect amount of time and then nails the timing on cigarette/beer combo.  I don't know in the hell he pulled that off in just two takes.  And I really never noticed how he walks like Norm from Cheers, plops down and says, "I'll have a brewskie, Charlie!"  The look of disdain from the bartender, "Name's Mitch."
