Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for April 07, 2017

Now he’s a lava not a fighta.

In P2 is there a weird face peeking out between Pete and Ryan/Cane?

For a second, I was wondering, “Witness Protection Program” but I guess the “temper” angle is more likely.

Looks like we will be seeing some batters getting hit when “Cane” loses his temper this season. Did “Cane” get a nose job sometime between P2 & P3…

Oh Lord….Here we go again! Baseball playdowns commence late july with teen angst being the winner!

In all reality , Hey Pete , want to meet my sister Sugar Cane she’s real sweet ? My Uncle Hurricane was a great fighter , Bob Dylan wrote a song about him,now tell me about the infamous showers at Milford .

Pete- “What’s your name?” RVA- “The answer my friend is blowin’ in De Windt.” Eric Clapton wrote about RVA’s Germanic relative, Koch. So did Jackson Browne. Lou Ferrigno must be happy his left handed pitching, well coached son is playing for GilPa. It makes other Fathers Green with envy.

I used to have a temper. I went off when someone asked that THIRD QUESTION IN A ROW!

Cane looks like he is ready to erupt. He may have gotten the name volcano because of the bare spot at the top of his head.

That’s all in the past now and is unlikely to come up in the next four months.

Canes older brother is Lynn… as in Ritalin! His cousin is Lew as in Lewid Behavior… wont see him areund MILFord HS for a long time. And it it goes on, and on…….

Bleah. I like my Ryan van’s Express nickname better.

Now I don’t get angry, I just get even.

I once had a neighbor named Candy Kane. Seriously.

So is this the Boo story on the boy’s side? Angry fireballing pitcher with a bad hairstyle, hits batters mellows out and takes a fateful trip to the Swifty Mart. Been there, seen that. And the big difference? He’s a lefty.

Based on the last angry ball player we saw; we should start funding little libraries on every corner.

His temper is under control since his girlfriend started dominating him. That’s what happens to all volcanoes. They go Doormat.

When he quick pitches do they call him Hurry-Cane?

Do any of you long term readers remember if Gil ever had an athlete who made it to the pros? Just curious.
