Kim Byung-hyun Signs with Golden Baseball League

Can Kim Byung-hyun fall any lower?:

South Korean pitcher Kim Byung-hyun has signed with the Orange Country Flyers of the U.S. Golden Baseball League (GBL), the team said Saturday on its Web site, in an attempt launch a comeback to the Major Leagues,
The 31-year-old relief pitcher will be given a pitching rotation this year, the team said, without disclosing details of his contract.   [Yonhap News]

It is hard to believe the Kim was once an all-star pitcher in 2002.

    I bet he could pick up some extra cash if he submitted this photo to the World's Gayest Pitching Pose selection committee.

    I've seen better form at the Special Olympics by a retard gimp with some kind of palsy.

    He is still young. I hope he can rebound to regain is once very talented from. However, his precipitous fall from grace leads me to conclude that there is a good chance he was following the baseball trends of the early 2000's with PHD's.

    He could have been a good pitcher with a good career if he stayed as middle reliever and if he hadn't insisted on being a starter.

    Yea, he always seemed much more suited for middle relief or late inning relief.

    Orange County Flyers.

    I'm from OC, and I didn't even know we had such a team until I read this news story. At first I assumed it was a minor league team from one of the lesser Orange Counties, like where the Choppers are from.

    "Were you looking in the mirror?"

    You caught me Charlie.

    Disregard that last comment. It turns out I was looking in the mirror.

    …except for the retard gimp part. I was looking at Charlie when I came up with that.
