Apparently not.

And neither can Wade.

Of all the things pitchers aren’t allowed to do, my man here is allowed to pull a move I tried back in 8th grade. With much smaller arms

 

 

You stole my joke from the other night! lol

Doesn't affect the release in terms of seeing the ball? Ump is afraid he might get punched? Sexian?

the other night I wondered if he was covering up the white stripe on the black uni.

Lamonte Wade isn't a major league hitter  That much is clear

 

In theory Sox should be trying to lose. Whats the point of winning 70 games? They should want that top seven draft pick!

 

That's how the front office would think, but I can't imagine the players buying into that thinking. As a GM, I'd say play the kids so we can see what they can do, but as a player, I'm going all out all the time.

On the other hand, he is a major league base runner.

Bases loaded, two outs in bottom of 10th in Cleveland.  Puig coming up.

Cleveland wins

Totally get this. I was talking to some of my friends who are Mets fans. They aren't going to get the wild card. They are going end up around .500 and get a 18-22 first round pick. Tank! That's my motto if you're not in it. The Pirates know what's up...

Well shoot fire.

The Twins are just going to drag it out a bit to torture Cleveland.

I smell some late inning heroics, or maybe that's just the Coors Banquet I smell...

He's only had 25 plate appearances!

Didn't Berrios have like a 7 ERA in his first 20 starts or something like that? Turned out just fine.

He's only had 25 plate appearances!

didn’t TK say that you don’t know what you have in a hitter until 1000 plate appearances?

We are just getting warmed up and I guarantee you the Squirrel traps outside are gone...haha Jake looked really sad in the dugout...I think he needs a Cruz hug and get to hold Ebire, the stuffed Squirrel...

I thought Adrianza was out for the year.

Sleestak has pitched well this evening!

Reason #487 why I love baseball.

 

Check out Stashak- he looks like he'd fold up in a high wind like a patio chair.

Check out these bruisers on the Sox, like Palka and Cordero-

 

Right now, this game, Stashak > the Bruisers.

 

It doesn't matter how big your biceps or your beer belly are, you can excel in this game if you've got the right stuff inside.

Where’s Renteria?

Rotator cuff surgery, so McEwing makes the pitching changes.

Wade hasn't put up notable stats in the minors, but he does have a good eye and appears to be a smart and sound player. It seems Bremer thinks he is pretty special. I just don't think he'll hit enough to be a substantial player. 

Castro and his .200 BA after the all star break have no place on the potential playoff roster.

Bring in Bummer! Can't spell Bummer without bum!

Heh....

 

Man, Jiminez can even look like a butcher on a ball he catches!  

 

He's only had 25 plate appearances!

True, but his minor league numbers haven't dazzled me.  Doesn't look like he makes good contact that often
