I’ve been reading you since the DJF days, and I think “So, you’re saying the strike zone isn’t supposed to look like a ghost peeking out from behind a door??” may be one of the greatest sentences you’ve written in that time...

Would love to know what Martinez said. There was a bit of backlash out there about what he did, but I think it was fantastic. It's unbelievable how umpires are above criticism.

Interesting. I generally find most people *love* when coaches get ejected. Then again, some folks seem to want to find fault with whatever the Blue Jays are doing and work backwards to form an opinion from there!

I think the fact that it's only hurting him on swings and misses and that they let him play through it some, is a fairly strong signal that it's probably not catastrophic like that. But until the doctors see it I guess anything is possible. And I wouldn't doubt that he could miss some time because of it, sadly. We'll see. Better now than in September, I guess.
