Hahaha, nice package, Jose.When Jim Thome finally retires, The Dugout (if we're still doing it by then, hopefully getting paid 20 grand a Dugout by Time Magazine) will surely give him an emotionally poignant farewell. When Kyle Farnsworth is sent down to the minors in a couple of years for being bad at baseball we will follow him down and eventually to his grave, but he will get what he deserves from us for being so damned entertaining.
It's those secondary characters that worry me. Like, what am I supposed to do when Brandon Duckworth retires? I got my first taste of that this week when Jose Lima was unceremoniously dropped by the Kia Tigers after winning no games, giving up 280 home runs, and accidentally flooding entire sections of South Korea by goofing off when he was supposed to be watching the damn.
How do you celebrate the loss of a legend? By throwing him into a movie about Korea, because honestly, does he deserve more? Jose Lima says goodbye (and probably "bap") after the jump.

good work as always. but you guys need to do something about the huge gap between the dugouts that show up on the dugout.p-boi.com site's rss feed and the "old" ones in the archive. can't you add the older fanhouse dugouts to the archive as well? otherwise we basically have to scroll through every fanhouse page since you've been here to find it.
though i was able to google "DO NOT GO INTO THE OUTFIELD" and find it that way.
