I wouldn't think you could throw a changeup with stitches in your pinkie but it would depend on exactly where they were and what grip he uses.

Overall you put an extraordinary amount of pressure (think the end of a whip) on your fingertips when you pitch, not sure how you do that with stitches even if the ball isn't in direct contact with the affected area.

Then again, it's the ALCS and as long as you aren't slinging blood all over the place they have pain killers.

A circle change puts no pressure on the outside of your pinkie.

JMO, but for the remainder of the postseason, in any game he plays in, Francisco Lindor will be the "best baseball player" on the field.

In the postseason you win with pitching and situational hitting. Obviously at this point pitching is a concern. BUT, Tito making Miller a potential 6 out set-up man takes alot of pressure off of Tomlin and Bauer. Dammit this is fun! I've always said I could die a happy man if in my lifetime I got to witness a TOSU National Championship in football and a Cleveland Indians World Series Championship. JT and Urban delivered on point one, Hargrove pulling Brian Anderson for a pinch hitter in game 7 in 1997 cost me the other up to now.(YES, Hargrove cost them that title, I hold no ill feelings toward Mesa because he never should have been in the game to begin with)

Anyway, what a possibility that BOTH could happen this year. Life is good.

GO BUCKEYES!!!

GO TRIBE!!!

Peace

The Andrew Miller trade will go down as one of the best in team history. Man alive is that guy a stud. Six batters faced tonight, five strikeouts.

Agree 100%

There wasn't a single player available at the trade deadline that could have provided more to the Tribe's needs than Miller. He was the "had to get" guy and we got him. Kudo's!

Peace
