I would let Marmol do whatever he wants with my g/f

Wow. If its only going to take him 6 pitches to shake off a weeks worth of rust, Im OK with that.

Before he did whatever he wanted with you?

[Butterscup1679666578]

<3 Marmol.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Capps in to pitch for Pittsburgh

[Fred Hornkohl]

Soriano doubled to right center field

[BCVM22]

Some insurance would be great.

[illiniguy]

man he isn't running well at all.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Soriano is still a bit gimpy.

[killthegoat06]

I love me some Carlos Marmol. Nice hit Soriano.

[Yeti]

better than last night, sure, but not as advertised

[BCVM22]

Boooooo

[17 Seconds]

Best reliever in baseball.

 

Also, he looks like the alien from "Mac and me".
