It sounds stupid. He did it with someone on the White Sox too Moncada. He pronounces it Moan-cada. Remminds me of a Teinowitz joke. He got a sweater for Christmas. He was hoping for a moaner. That joke never made sense to me since Tiny is Jewish, so why would he be getting a Christmas present?

He pronounces names strangely, especially Japanese or other tougher to say names. It's just his style, and it isn't a big deal.

People want to do the right thing and say names right, but then they don't bother seeing it all the way through. Like when people on NPR say the word "Latino" as if they're Rosie Perez but then snap right back to NPR voice.

I always loved that!

At my son's recent HS baseball game, the opposing (home) team had a public address system and the announcer read most of the names (white boys) straight up, but then when he got to one of their players named Jose Rivera, he rolled the R for so long I thought I was at a boxing match with Michael Buffer.

Here's hoping that Doug Glanville does a few games with Len, in addition to the Pre and Post game on whatever they call CSN now.

Racist.

He's okay. Good at in-game analysis, but not funny at all.

That's why I don't like the guy, one corny joke after the next in rapid succession..the whole game.

Doug is great, I wanted him here 10 years ago when the Sox fucked up n cut him loose..much better than Len or JD.
