Say WHAT!!!!!

“He was down here [in the clubhouse] in the third inning, getting ready for the game,” Barrett said. “He starts his routine a lot earlier than most guys I’ve ever seen. I walked in here to get warm for a split second in the third, and I saw him getting ready, so I thought maybe I need to get ready, too. That way, when I went in to hit, I didn’t feel rushed.”

 

But what is it that Mabry does?

 

“I don’t want to go into details,” Barrett said, “but he was getting ready.”

 

“I can’t tell you either,” Baker said.

 

 

:-s

 

:wink:

[snoodmonger]

Wha? That's truly bizarre.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

Don't ask, don't tell.

[LoneStarCubFan]

My guess is it involves a live chicken and candlesticks.

[NorthsideAvenger]

My guess is it involves a live chicken and candlesticks.

 

But shouldn't that also involve Julio Zuleta?

[CubinNY]

My guess is it has to do with getting Zamborno's computer password and "chatting" with/to some of Z's internet friends. :cyclopsani:

Pedro Cerrano: Bats, they are sick. I cannot hit curveball. Straightball I hit it very much. Curveball, bats are afraid. I ask Jobu to come, take fear from bats. I offer him cigar, rum. He will come.

The Cubs have 2 pinch hit homer this season (Barrett and Mabry)

 

All of last season the Cubs had 2 pinch hit homers. (Dubois and Walker)

 

Whatever Mabry is doing, as long as it works, I don't need to know.

I'm thinking it has to do with rubbing of a certain part of lower anatomy in order to "relax" before he goes to the plate.

i was always under the impression that moises pissed on his hands to toughen them up(build callouses)i could be wrong though

[Hatman]

Don't ask, don't tell.

 

Maybe Edmonds taught him a few tricks during his time with the Cards...like how to better use the eye lash curver or how to apply foundation in cold weather...

We have 3 if you consider Barrett pinch-hitting and replacing Blanco as a pinch hit.

 

Barrett twice, and Mabry once.

Last night's HR was only Barrett's 2nd this season, and it was not a pinch hit. He only has 1 PH HR this season.

Agreed...that's why he has to go and "warm up" so early in the game.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

Agreed...that's why he has to go and "warm up" so early in the game.

 

If that's the case, I've already "warmed up" twice today.
