The Dugout: Ghost Town

This is the biggest image of Doug Mientkiewicz I could put alongside this post without going off on a sixteen paragraph rant about how it had to be the PIRATES who gave this guy a minor league contract and then were bad enough to need him in the bigs. Imagine if Kevin Maas just showed up out of nowhere playing for the Nationals. It'd be "Maas Hysteria~!" all over again.

Tonight's Dugout is basically one joke that 0.05% of the regular readership of the Dugout, a readership that makes up about 0.005% of Fanhouse traffic, will enjoy. Nothing is truer to the spirit of the old Dugout than a joke that nobody gets or enjoys!

Tumbleweeds and the rest of the Dugout are after the jump.
