WTF Hernandez hasn't done drugs in 25 years... even if he was on drugs on the booth he's got a much better voice then Jerry "Terrible Voice" Remy

Let the record show that I predicted this, the latest p!ssfest between metsguy and RSR almost an hour ago. Of course, it's not hard to do, but I'd have to say I nailed it.Don Orsillo and Jerry Remy, but I'm pretty sure you know that and you're just trying to pick a fight with RSR.
I omitted the Mets broadcast team. Darling and Hernandez are very knowledgeable and you gotta love Kiner.

One thing that amazes me is why don't guys in the booth have computer with baseballreference.com open in front of them. It seems like it would be an easy step that they could take a 10 sec and check something before they speak.

His personality makes up for it. It is really no worse then a NY or Brooklyn accent

The third man in the Jays radio booth does that along with checking the out of town scores. It would help other broadcasts and it certainly couldn't hurt them.

Oh no, not him again
This is an excellent way to describe Vinny.Watching a game that Vin is working is like listening to a grandfather or uncle tell a three hour long baseball story chock full of references from now and long ago and weaving it all together into a very cohesive, extremely listenable narrative. If you haven't heard him at work - you've got a week of MLB Extra Innings free (lucky bastards in the States. Up here no MLB network + no free MLB Extra Innings =) so get going and stop making excuses like the fact that he comes on too late if you're in the East...or don't and miss out on the greatest that ever was, is now, or ever will be. Period.
