Western Front
Tres Compañeros
by Geoff Young
It would be easy to call Gregor Blanco, Melky Cabrera, and Angel Pagan the “Three Amigos.” For as much fun as that movie was, I prefer something a little more highbrow and suggest we borrow from Wim Wenders. They are compañeros.
Who saw these guys coming? All arrived in San Francisco at roughly the same time, and all have established an expected level of play that isn't particularly high. Here are their lines entering 2012:

You're already the best writer on BP, and now I find out you're a Wim Wenders guy...What next? Have you ever seen his Tokyo Ga? Best documentary film ever made...
I have not seen that film but will add it to my list. Thanks for the suggestion.
