Rick Dysentheriot. I bet there is audio somewhere of Harry hilariously pronouncing Edgar Renteria's name in 1997.

While playing for the Florida Marlins, he was nicknamed "The Secret Weapon" for his versatility on the field and his timely pinch hitting.

Just what we need for JEPSTINK'S SNEAK ATTACK.

It bears mention that the secret weapon provided below-average defense and slashed .125/.217/.190/.408 in 48 PAs as a pinch-hitter with the Marlins. Not that it affects his ability to teach/manage, but ... damn -- some weapons should be kept secret.

Secret Weapon referred to the .38 he kept in his baseball pants just in case someone threatened to send him to the minors.

The Tribune said Rick Renteria was also known as the Silent Assassin in the minors.If only John Wilkes Booth and Lee Harvey Oswald were that kind of silent as assassins.

I love JEPSTINK by the way. Love it.

I love JEPSTINK by the way. Love it.

Too bad, because the Official Steve RosenDOOM mandated nickname is in and it is "Oopstein".

God that's awful.

A strain of clown disease!  hahahaha!  “Hey, yo, Theo, I got your Torey Lovullo right ‘ere, fella’’?  lol good one Steve lol

"The Cubs already have lost that news conference, like it was a home game or something."

I use Safari, and the Reader button next to the address bar bypasses their subscription wall.  Most of the time, I'm thankful for the wall's protection.

Then by all means, allow me:

Trying to trade Ryan Dempster was an embarrassing episode. Oops.

The Cubs still don't have an ace in a game where pitching wins. Oops.

Oh, and attendance has dropped each season since Epstein arrived.

Epstein figures to tell us Renteria is the right guy, just like he told us Dale Sveum was the right guy before he lost almost 200 games in two seasons and couldn't make players better. Oops.

...

You'd hate to think that Epstein caught whatever strain of clown disease Tom Ricketts brought to Wrigley, but in a lot of significant areas, it's starting to look that way.

Starlin Castro got a new, big deal and got worse. Oops.

Anthony Rizzo cost the Cubs a pitcher, then he got a new, big deal and got worse. Oops.

Edwin Jackson was given a $52 million contract. Oops.

I hope he gets it right from now on. Otherwise, people might start calling him

How have the past 10 years been to Steve Oopsenbloom's career trajectory in which he'd be as hated as Jay Mariotti, except no one really gives a shit about him and the Tribune probably forgot he's on their payroll?

Will we ever find a cure for clown disease?
