i was thinking Hockey and Kung Fu

 

I was thinking of the David Carradine character from the old Kung Fu TV show . His name was Kwai Chang Caine and of course Bruce Lee.

Interesting stuff about Kahnle's pitch selection and how often he uses those three pitches ( FB, CU, SL).

From what I've read he has a plus change to go with his mid 90's heat but the slider looks pretty weak. Maybe the Sox can help Kahnle make a few tweaks to help his control and become a valuable asset in the pen. Seems the talent is there.

I am almost positive he was just making a joke.

 

Yeah actually, I am positive he was making a joke.

 

I was.

 

Cubs got Rex Brothers, the other bullpen piece Rockies dfa'd. I know he had his fans on this site.

Yency Almonte just sounds like the name of a RP that the Twins could pull out of their ass at will to terrorize the Sox, so, glad he's not going to the Twins, I guess.

I'm sure he will be throwing a cutter soon enough.

Ozuna swings and misses at the 97mph cutter.

A little late to the game here, but as the news coverage we saw about the trade didn't delve into Almonte any more than citing a few stats... here is a write-up more focused on stuff for both players, particularly Almonte.
