Taking BP tonight, the club says he could be back this year.

Much like the people that thought Scott Downs was done, and boom, he ends up on a contending team's active roster.

Twitter Vote Terms & Conditions For the third consecutive year, the 2014 All-Star Game MLB.com Final Vote Sponsored by Experian (#FinalVote) will include a social balloting element as Twitter support from the candidates' fans over the last six hours of balloting will count toward their final vote totals. From 10 a.m. - 4 p.m. (EDT) on Thursday, July 10, any tweet that includes a designated player hashtag will be tabulated as part of the overall vote total used to determine the American League and National League winners. The Final Vote will end at 4 pm ET on Thursday, July 10. One vote per player per tweet (i.e vote for more than one player per tweet, but each tweet has a maximum of one vote for any player). Only eligible votes tweeted during the stated time will be counted. You must have a valid Twitter account and abide by the Twitter terms of service (https://twitter.com/tos). Ballots generated by a script, macro or other mechanical or automated means will be disqualified. MLB Advanced Media, L.P. will validate all ballots cast, and reserves the right to invalidate any such ballot in its discretion. MLB Advanced Media is not responsible for any downtime or failure of Twitter in transmitting votes and only eligible votes received by and accessible to MLB Advanced Media will be counted. The Office of the Commissioner of Baseball will have final decision on all balloting matters. All votes are final. Fans may follow @MLB on the popular social networking service for any changes and for the latest standings updates in advance of the 4 p.m. EDT balloting deadline.

Dude isn't even an All Star. I don't see the obsession.

Some random dude on Twitter says Abreu and Alexei in. Sale final vote

QUOTE (Charlie Haeger's Knuckles @ Jul 6, 2014 -> 06:31 PM) We don't know that. For all we know, Jerry Reinsdorf called him and said "dont f***ing think about it" Tanaka won't pitch, so someone else will go in his place. Yeah that's not it

Even if he still ends up making it, it's a f***ing joke.

Of course there's no good reason Jeter made the team.

QUOTE (Leonard Zelig @ Jul 5, 2014 -> 09:54 PM) The gas station? That'd be the one.

shut your face

I'm not sure what world Abreu and Sale aren't both at the ASG.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jul 5, 2014 -> 06:38 PM) I totally agree but I understand why they wanted a lefty. Then complete choke job, including the offense. I do too, but that's a pretty high leverage system to throw Surkamp into.

Woj makes it sound like the Lakers are really moving in on Anthony.

We do a pretty craptastic job of developing any kind of offensive prospects as well, which doesn't help.

I don't see why we couldn't leave Jake in. He's easily been our best reliever this year, why not leave him in against Seattle's best hitter?

QUOTE (South Side Fireworks Man @ Jul 5, 2014 -> 05:28 PM) When they put the scores on the bottom of the screen it makes Belisario look fat. Yeah, it's the scores that do that.

Webb for the 15th, 16th and possibly the 17th. Rienzo for the 18th, 19th, 20th, 21st, then Leury in the 22nd?

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 5, 2014 -> 05:10 PM) Too bad Abreu can't field like that. I do like Abreu though. That play wasn't exactly a gold glove caliber one.

Pinch run with Leury.

Well, Jose gets a chance to extend that streak. f***.

Today's closer: Zach Putnam

Sigh. Couldn't push Petricka past that elusive 6 pitch mark.

QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Jul 5, 2014 -> 03:29 PM) Let's get Jose a chance to extend that hitting streak, come on guys. And now let's not!

Just the way we drew it up. Just leave Petricka out there, right?
