    Jordan Zimmerman is bouncing back nicely. I was worried after his last outing.

    YES!

    Crazy homer happy game in Cincy. After Neil Walker's most recent home the players were doing a YES! chant in the dugout.

    Luis Avilan who is my relief pitcher just gave up a 3 run homerun to Dominic Brown my batter... I have mixed emotions.

    Glad my starters decided to not show up again for the first game of the week. I admire their consistency.

    Oddly enough none by me. But I did pull 8 RBI and some tidy OBP and SLG to start the week. My guys got doubles happy apparently.

    Even Longo and Zobrist. Chen stymied the Rays tonight, the one run was a Longoria single to drive in Zobrist.

    Good night.

    My offense blew up last night too, guess I should start playing Walker instead of Phillips for a while.

    In more depressing news for a certain Rays fan,
    Tampa Bay Rays pitcher Matt Moore will have season-ending Tommy John surgery on his left elbow, according to multiple reports.

    Just another robotic arm on the way.

    The amount of people who have gone down with that so far this year is just insane.

    It's almost as if the human body wasn't designed to throw a ball that fast thousands and thousands of times per year.

    Meanwhile, Mark Buerhle's fastball still hasn't hit the catcher's glove yet, but he never misses a start. And he somehow threw a no-hitter once.

    1) Silence 2) Books must be returned by the last date shown 3) Do not interfere with the nature of causality

    well, his no-hitter was against the Rays

    which is the equivalent of a 4 hit 1-run performance against any other team

    Keri wrote a decent article on it last week.

    Basically, pitchers are pitching way more than they ever used to, and that could be the cause of all these recent injuries

  • Options

    It does seem like at the minors level pitchers are getting overworked. Fall leagues, winter leagues, world baseball classic, etc, etc.

    Plus it seems like prospects don't really ascend to the majors unless they DOMINATE the minors as opposed to being really good. Archie Bradley has to post a 1.5 ERA in triple A to even be considered for promotion, etc, etc

    So they pitch extremely hard in the mid-minors to try and make it to the show as soon as they can to capitalize on that sweet late 20's free agent deal

    Plus they know if they know if they blow out their arm they can have surgery and maybe throw even harder afterwards

    i'm guessing that TJ rehab time eats into MLB service time if they got hurt in the majors right?

    that's.. pretty weird

    The only reason Archie Bradley ain't called up yet is arbitration clock/money

    yeah but is he were pitching 3.2ERA with a lower strikeout rate, people wouldn't be down the GM's throat to promote him immediately
