Broken thumb.

[USAFChief]

Dislocated thumb?

[FLTwinsGuy]

Can definitely tell Wade not used to LF in Target Field...ouch

[Nine of twelve]

Cave will be on tomorrow's roster.

[FLTwinsGuy]

That Marwin Gonzalez signing looks better every day

[MVP Nick Punto]

How about this defense?

Edit: guess it didn't matter.

[tbhysgb]

Eh too bad rookers not on the 40 man. I’d like to see him. Haven’t they been using him in the outfield in Rochester? Anyone know how that’s been going?

[Nine of twelve]

 

How about this defense?

A strikeout is the best defense.

[RaymondLuxuryYacht]

Big Mike seems to have Gallo's number today

Looked like Eddie Feigner on the mound.

Could be worse. I'm glad he called Buxton off ...

[ChrisKnutson]

I get how important it is to “give it your all” when you play in the big leagues, but why couldn’t have Wade just conceded, the score was 5-0...

[Shaitan]

Wade is not having much luck in MLB so far. At least he'll get service time for an injury.

I'd be saying "IT HURTS!!" until October and collect a major league paycheck for three months.

Is that a real person? Feigner sounds like a fake (pun intended) last name.

[MNT1996]

Pineda pitched fantastic. I'm disappointed in those people in the rows above the dugout not giving him a standing ovation. 

[USAFChief]

Is he done, you think?

[MVP Nick Punto]

We better play the rest of the game well enough to get Pineda this win.

Softball pitcher from way back - have an autographed ball of his somewhere

[MNT1996]

If Wade has to go on the DL I'd love to see Rooker get a chance. Even if just for 1 game.

[Nine of twelve]

My opinion of Laudner as an announcer just took a nose dive. He said Adrianza with a long a.

[RaymondLuxuryYacht]

Doogie reporting SMeltzer starting tomorrow - had not heard that

[jimbo92107]

 

Dislocated thumb?

That's exactly how I held my thumb after I got a jam fracture colliding with a runner headed for first base. Stuck the burning thumb straight out. If it's dislocated, I will be pleasantly surprised.

Used to tour the country playing against local teams, using only a four man team. And his four man fastpitch team would beat you every time.

 

*He used to strike people out pitching from 2nd base.

further edit: *it's possible I'm speaking from first hand experience.

Google will set you free.

[MVP Nick Punto]

Google will set you free.

Ah, but why do that when I can get others to do the work for me?

[Blake]

 

You could see the field shake during that triple.

The ground was shaking where I live yesterday.

 

[Blake]

 

Ah, but why do that when I can get others to do the work for me?

But, do you know how to take all the credit and avoid all the blame?

 

If so, you're upper management material!

[stringer bell]

Good outing for Pineda. Too bad about for Wade. 

 

Smeltzer would make sense given how left-handed the Ranger lineup is. Would the team go short on position players tomorrow and replace Wade temporarily with Smeltzer?

[PDX Twin]

Bone-head balk from a Rice alum ...
