    I can only guess that Jake and Hinch had some sort of conversation whereby playing him more regularly was hoped to fix things.

    He did have twice as many strike outs in one game than Ken Giles has had all year.

    He was never good in the first place. He was a throw-away in the Miami deal.

    Does Jake even have options left or will he have to clear waivers?

    As best I can tell, 2013,14 & 16 were his option years, so waivers.

    He's a perfectly fine bench OFer.

    That was some interesting baserunning by Marwin, lucky the LF bobbled the ball.

    I finally remember now all the pre-playoff fear of how teams would steal on McCann non-stop (didn't happen... was there even one steal attempt in the LCS/WS?)
