I wish Neal Huntington was still in the Indians organization… I give the current Indians FO props for the starting rotation they put together though.

Ben Zobrist would be a perfect fit for the Bucs.

Soriano and Joe Maddon have a history from the Rays. If he can (can being the operative word) bring out the best in the “untucker” – it will be a boost to the Cubs’ pen. Is he still “untucking” after a save in the minors?
Jorge Soler Powered
He’s not closing games in the Minors and who cares about him untucking his jersey after the game is over? When teams walkoff they practically strip a guy nude and pelt him with candy and seeds.

Thanks. If he’s pitching set-up that’s good all around. Agree about walkoffs, but a regular save is usually high-fives with the catcher first.
BTW – TGIF !! Baseball returns !!!

The entire Brewers team used to untuck on the field after every win. Is it really noteworthy?

Because what the Pirates need for their playoff push is a pitcher with an ERA of 5+… Hellickson? Really?

They need him for the cubs playoff push.

Never underestimate the power of Ray Searage (Unless the Pitcher is named Ernesto Frieri).

Ben Zobrist, Mike Napoli, and Scott Kazmir would be the perfect additions to bolster the Pirates. Napoli can platoon with Alvarez, Kazmir is a big upgrade over Locke. And Zobrist share time with Kang and Mercer while Harrison is out.

This would be their best course of action I agree. i like the Idea of Revere for the bench too. If they could find a way to fit all of them plus Kang on the bench. A guy like Revere can really help in the late innings of playoff games with his ability to come in and swipe a bag.

Napoli sucks
