Buehrle>Wood

I wish it were real. I'm perfectly okay with Middleton saying what he did. Scoreboard operators taking the most harmless jab ever is funny too though. No reason to be upset.

Actually update: now reading it wasn't there the next inning. So not sure either way.

Extend Elvis

Shaw went 2IP with 4ks while getting the save Monday so that may have earned him the spot. Of course Santos may be put back out there regardless.

I guess Shaw is the closer now. Hard to argue with his performance the other night.

Don't think it was. Was up the next inning

Where have you been? He's only effective as a closer though.

Which is why mutual options are rare but yeah in this case, he's pitched better than $12 million. No trade market though should be a pretty good indicator to him what his FA market will be.

Sooo does that mutual option with Clevinger hit?

Not sure if Andrus was saying s%*# there to Middleton or just doing his normal routine.

I didn't have volume in. Was Middleton booed?

I know for sure before his July call-up he had already been with the team for a bit before being rostered. Pretty sure earlier in the year he was an emergency traveler too but could be wrong.

Middleton actually said ""You have rookies sleeping in the bullpen during the game. " It's Carlos Perez. He's a rookie. OP rules them out because of only being a handful of games in May but that's not true. He was up most of July. Aside from that, he has traveled with the team quite a bit this year when non-rostered. It would make sense for him to be hanging out in the bullpen as a catcher when he's not on the roster.

More or less ended Clevelands season. More or less just ended the Yankees season. Fun three games.

Shaw with a 4k, 6 out save. Pretty incredible.

Shaws velocity up?

Any ideas?

Now I'm curious who the player is who was sleeping in the clubhouse. I don't think Moncadas hangovers count as a disorder.

Thank you ron. Doing God's work out here.

Oh he did get ejected nvm.

How is he not ejected yet? You can't argue balls and strikes.

Think he's still on bereavement

Pretty sure Bummer is our close, but I guess who knows

Little bit. Still should have been made.

Impressive by Ramsey. Yoan costing him a run.
