It wouldn't surprise me, but I'm not a Cub expert on the level of these Sox fans.

Im guessing all the workout guys use supplements that go right up to the line of legal. Maybe some spills over the line. Maybe not. Maybe fuck yourself.

Just keep dealin'

No doubt he's probably using protein powder drinks and whey shakes and who knows what other legal substances, designed to aid in muscle strength and recovery. That's just intelligent training and preparation for success. Nothing illegal or wrong about any of that. Keep dealin' indeed.

There's a 30% chance that JORR is inside that costume.

Does that thing get passed around the Subdivision?

The costume, not JORR.

Probably. It'd be fun to rip the head off and see what you find inside. I wouldn't be shocked if two guys were fooling around inside there with an arrangement akin to this:

Every Sox fan on this board is praying Jake tested positive more than wanting them to win their next game.......I would bet what I have against that happening.......but congrats to the Sox for a good start

I doubt its anybody most baseball fans have heard of. If it were it would've come out with Dee Gordon's name, but hey what do I know.

Nah the good shit Abreu's on is top of the line, probably from the Lowlands. This current wave of positives tests are guys getting busted for junk East Germany used to give their Olympic athletes in the 1970's, cheap shit. Take a look at how much time the Sox have lost to players being on the DL the last 10 years, and then tell me Herm Schnieder would be caught dead giving Chris Sale or Jose Abreu some shit from a Warsaw Pact country.

Sox get good the good juice, proof is in the pudding.

He needs to call Abreu's guy ASAP and get back on a cycle.

This 5 inning shit can't stand.

He needs to skip a start or two, he's looked like he's been laboring hard in almost every start this season.

He is just regressing to the mean. Hopefully he holds it together for this season before he really falls off.

I feel like he wants to strike everyone out looking. He is constantly dicking around the edges of the strikezone and almost refuses to challenge hitters over the plate. He doesn't seem to have lost mph though so its kind of an odd stretch.

I've said the same thing. The velocity is there, and the stuff is there. He just has no clue where it's going. I also think he has been dicking around with guys. He has stuff to just say hit it, but he has been working the edges a lot. Throw it over the middle of the plate, and let it move from there.

Cubs Find What’s Hampered Jake Arrieta Lately: Mental Approach Contributing To Mechanical Flaw

“Jake and I talked about it yesterday, I brought up some data actually and showed him exactly what’s going on,” Bosio said in an interview Wednesday morning with Brian Hanley and Zach Zaidman on 670. “I’d rather not (get specific), but it’s been addressed. It’s something we’re going to be working on on the side here in about an hour-and-a-half. It’s something that’s definitely fixable. He’s aware of it, and I’m aware of it and now we go attack it, get a game plan and set the stage for his start coming up in New York.

“It’s something that has to do mechanically, mentally and those things are fixable things. It’s a mental approach, which you talk about, you address it, you accept it and then you move forward and get a game plan.

“The hardest thing to do is to be critical of yourself in a time where things are going pretty good for him — lately, no. But like you said, a lot of guys are sitting with a (3.54 ERA in June) and having career months. Not for Jake. That’s not acceptable for Jake. That’s not acceptable for us. We’re going to game plan and try to get this thing tightened up. Hopefully we see some different results in his next start.”
