This guy just flat out blows. I used to love watching him (try to) pitch for the Yanks and watching him get teabagged by the opposition. Good times. I say nay nay to Villone.

He's been on the XM MLB channel a couple of times and is a very good interview. A very bright guy. Brogna is currently working as a scout, for, I believe, the Diamondbacks.

He is a bit of a rubber armed guy, didnt he throw like 3-4 innings of relief against the Mets in some blow out two years ago? The Pirates can certainly use that with all thier young starters.
