Yep.  Let him throw at least 100.  Otherwise why is he here?

I mean I realize in all likelihood he's done in a few pitches or so, but maybe Shuster will have another nice outing

Well, at least we don't have to waste a bunch of time speculating on whether Clevinger will bring any type of trade return this June/July.

I'm glad they waited so long to call Clevinger up. Needed to wait until he was ready. Loser.

The number of pitchers who have signed really late in ST or into the season and had decent seasons...seems to be about a 1/4 or 1/5 chance it goes well.

Seems to be even tougher for hitters these days to ever get their timing and swing down with so many max velo pitchers out there.

Clevinger currently rocking a WHIP of 2. Lovely work from Getz bringing him in and getting him much needed work...

He's safe IMO, IDK what Stone is seeing 

Cant wait for Pedro to talk about Beni “starting to turn it around” in the post game while lobbing Lee and Fletcher under the bus.

It was almost like the baseball god's having a laugh and throwing in one good player among the dozen replacement level ones Gets has brought in.

yup, though catchers are weird in their development. i have hope for shuster though as well.

Lee has a long ass way to go with his hitting but defensively with that arm and with robot zones coming he has a long career as at very least a solid backup and if he ever learns to hit for any average he'll be a star. 

On that note, does Max Stassi still exist?

He's under the expert care of the Sox' training staff, so maybe?

It's almost like some kids need some time to develop.

I forgot about that. That just pushes him into June then.

Come on Shuster, you don't want Shitster as your nickname

"SELL THE TEAM" is audible on the broadcast. I doubt Jerry is able to hear it though
