Herp derp Nishi's a bad player because the Twins couldn't use him right. The kid got severely injured in the first week of even playing, and when he comes back, of course he's not going to be at his best. He has to work back up to it. Minnesota was impatient as shit though and relocated him to their AAA division almost immediately after the season ended, so he's like "lol k going back to Japan then, fuck you guys." Smart kid if you ask me.

He used to have a model wife but she divorced his sorry ass because he sucks at playing baseball in America.....

[DMBdulas]
