Photo: Fausto Carmona’s Very Belated Birthday(s)
Because exactly 360 people have retweeted this comedy missive from the Cleveland Indians official Twitter account, it’s very possible that the reader — who’s as savvy with the instruments of technology as he is with the procreative urge of the world — that the reader has already enjoyed this photo of three birthday cakes, representing the three birthdays lost to time by Cleveland right-hander Roberto Hernandez (né Fausto Carmona). Yet, I’ll repeat here what I’ve repeated many times before: if I can give just one person access to a comedy photo from the internet of three birthday cakes for the player formerly known as Fausto Carmona, my efforts willn’t have been in vain.
Carson Cistulli has published a book of aphorisms called Spirited Ejaculations of a New Enthusiast.
And yet, this post is not a member of the esteemed “Cakes” category.
A tragedy only paralleled by the epiphenomenon known as “the Kurt Suzuki contamination”.
The greatest NotGraphs category (only because “Travels With Dale Thayer in Search of America” doesn’t exist yet) is crumbling before our eyes.
