Who the hell is Lamonte Wade? 

Someone better than Parrot. 
 

Ditto Jake Cave.

Some random Twins player who's gonna torture us for years as usual.

I can already see Jake Cave getting an RBI single this inning.

I love the replays of the blackout game in 08. Anyone else go to that game? I was in the 500 level but what a fun game. Thome, Griffey Jr. throw... Brian anderson diving catch

My boss got a couple of us tickets right on the tarp in the front row. It is one of my all time favorite baseball memories.

Still have the blackout towel?

Buxton just got under that one

Lucky that stayed in the park 

Oh goody, Jake Cave

Was there, best game I’ve ever been to. The crowd was amazing 

I remember whoever was announcing that game nationally compared it to the dead crowd at the game at Wrigley the previous day....I loved that ?

Throw that curve!

Somewhere,  I'm sure.  I don't talk about it much, but I have a killer Sox collection,  including some cool antiques.

Cease seems to be working much faster than as of late with much more aggressiveness around the plate.  

One third of Jake Cave's hits are against us...

Curve and Change look good.

I was there too...amazing experience.

Doubled up the change.  Interesting.  Looks like he's trying to change the scouting reports.

I was at game 2 of the ALCS, but even the blackout game topped that. The atmosphere was insane & I think everyone in black pushed it above the ALCS for me

So far Dylan is throwing everything around the zone and making hitters fight off his pitches.

Cave is literally their new Nick Punto

I was there for the AJ game as well, and 163 topped it until the ending.  AJ and Joe Crede were incredible.  I remember no one leaving for like a half hour after the walkoff.

No FB control

Problem is Twins are barely flinching at some good offspeed pitches. Wonder if they can tell what’s coming.

So fucking nasty and he never uses it.  I wonder if he connected with his HS pitching coach over the weekend as Coop would never recommend throwing such a pitch.

The book on cease is to take when you see curve spin.  He rarely throws it for a strike, so even though it has nasty break, its essentially a useless pitch the majority of the time

That comment from Stone makes it seem like he's souring a little on Cease
