Was this supposed to be tongue-in-cheek?

The Chronicle's Richard Justice post about the 'Stros' physically intimidating new closer today:

If you're looking for someone to rip the new closer, you've come to the wrong place. I got my first look at Jose Valverde this morning, and I've decided to do everything I can to stay on his good side. He's 6-4, 254 pounds. He throws the ball 150 mph. He's an emotional sort.

I plan on being his friend. I'm going to be just like the TV guys, especially that one that's always blogging about all his scoops. When Valverde enters a room, I'm going to run over there with a big smile and a handshake. When he says something that's even a little bit funny, I'm going to laugh so loud you'd think he was Larry The Cable Guy.

It'll be just like Justice's past coverage of Charley Casserly!
