A's sign Nick Punto

 

Good thing they signed a player willing to get dirty considering their sewage dugout situation.

Hey Nick, leave the bat-breaking to the big guys ok?

They know how to position the bat with the grain going the right way and all that. I don't know all the details but they know.

Not for amateurs.

Oh dude, I absolutely loved you in Throw Momma from the Train!

 

Let me come over and give you a little palm!

Hey Bobby V!

Don't try to flush that toilet outside your office!

Because it won't!

Drumsticks and PBR all around!

Profound clubhouse thoughts

"I've actually shredded people's dress shirts on airplane flights" - Nick Punto on his alter-ego "Shredder", a maniac who rips dress shirts off of teammates torsoes with little notice, but got payback last night

5 stars out of 5 on the "cliche-meter": ?!?! I could see if he was a Triple Crown threat. Otherwise, I am not understanding the "reserving a roster spot" thing for "Shredder". A little on the "annoying" side if you ask me. But that's just me.

Put this in the "This should never EVER happen" file

MLB Network caught Nick Punto telling Joe Mauer how to hit Jeff Niemann.

Apparently Mauer was very patient with him (Punto).
