    Maybe we should just give him the pitch com and let him call his own pitches like some pitchers do for the next couple starts. If he pitches well, that's great. If he sucks, you can sit his ass down and tell him that's why you should listen to us.

    Haven't they already allowed him to do that, and it failed terribly?

    I lost all respect for JJO in 2005. Always tried to bait players into clickbait material.

    Did they? Don't recall that but you may be correct. I don't remember any of our pitchers ever having the pitch com now that I think about it...

    Chas optioned. Rightfully so... but makes me wonder if Salazar would have been sent down if yesterday didn't happen.

    Odd that they optioned McCormick, as it means he cannot be optioned next year. He is almost certain to be non-tendered or traded this offseason.

    That's why it's such a double edged sword.
    If you get to the playoffs anything can happen.
    Studs go into droughts.
    Jeremy Pena's win WS MVPs

    Shite happens when the hoodies get worn.

    You guys remember when Maldy left and Framber tried calling his own games during Spring Training and got lit up every game until they put a stop to it. That manchild has a huge fragile ego.

    As believable as whatever excuses Alex Cora had about the Red Sox cheating.
