Nick Punto Moonlights as Tommy Herr during the Cards 2011 World Series Title Run!

Punto Was A NEATO-TORPEDO Option for The St. Louis Cardinals, a Team That ALWAYS Values The BENCH! (that's a compliment, btw... just sayin'...)

Soooooo…

…We Lose Albert…

…We RE-Sign Furcal…

…We Dump Theriot…

…We RE-Sign Skippy…

…We Lose Punto…

…We Lose Craig (to surgery tho hopefully he’ll be playing by May)…

…I Predict An INTERESTING’ISH’ish 2012 Season.

How’z About THAT For A “Wishy-Washy” Prediction?!?!?!?!!!

I Know.

I RawwwwwwK.

Nick Punto Should Be VERY Useful To The BoSOX, That's Fer Dayuum Shurrr! I Love Scutaro, but He Can't Be-In-There 162 Games Per-Year. Punto Will Earn His Money With Boston. Oh, and LOVE The Glasses, Kid! PERFECT!!! 😉
