Nice start!

He was supposed to be a good player for the Rays and then got sick like a dumb moron. Also I hate the Twins.

Those two should just have a fat guy quasi-backup-catcher fight in front of the mound. They can bring in Lloyd McClendon from where ever he is hanging out to go be the ref.

If anybody throws at Yermin, I would expect that Crochet would get a few days off courtesy of Rob Manfred after firing one into a random Twin on an 0-2 count.

what's he supposed to do, strike out on purpose?

I thought Hamilton trying to score on the botched throw after the triple was a bigger breach of the "unwritten rules" than that. I mean, I don't think you can expect the hitters not to swing. If you put a guy in there to serve up batting practice, that's on you.

There's no rule for a guy making the minimum. For a minimum guy, the rule is definitely waived.

Good to know!

The unwritten waiver

I believe it is German for "my penis"

Why would swinging be a breach of etiquette? You are trying to get the game over as quickly as possible and swinging is going to result in an out more times than not.

Agree, and thats what Stone said. You have a bat in your hand? Use it.

I agree. I would think trying to coax a walk off a position player would be worse.

Agreed, zero issues with Yermin skull fucking that 47mph heater.

THAT SAID...weren’t there MANY around these parts with their panties in a wad over perceived violations of unwritten rules when Yermin pitched against Boston?
