Who uses "'em" in a blog post on ESPN? Keith is such a lame-o.

Shakespeare sometimes abbreviated them to 'em. When the Scottish king confronts in the witches in Act IV, scene i, demanding that they prophesy for him once more, the First Witch tells him, "Say if thoud'st rather hear it from our mouths / Or from our masters." Mackers replies, "Call 'em. Let me see 'em."

For my money, the most bad-ass line in a play full of bad-ass lines.

I'm sitting behind the plate tonight - 3 up, 3 K's for Harvey. I watch a lot of MiL baseball - this is the most filthy pitcher I've ever seen. Easy - EASY gas.

Hunter is filling out too - not yet a man, but getting there.

[McLovin]

5 K's through two, nothing but awkward swings. Working in the low 90's.

These reports are great to hear. My optimism for Harvey is certainly on the rise.

[McLovin]

6 K's through 4, he's been very efficient. The Suns did get a double and manufactured from there for a tough run.

[McLovin]

8 K's, no walks, 71 pitches through 5. He's free and easy and just dealing.

Edit - done after 5.

I can't remember (maybe someone can fill me in) but didn't Bundy have the same sort of original diagnosis?

Yes. Well this for sure keeps him in our system.

[Rustbelt]

He is shut down for the year.

I am not a doom and gloom guy, but...

"Bundy, the 20-year-old phenom who was widely considered baseball?s best minor league arm coming into 2013, has not pitched since spring training because of an injury that was originally diagnosed as forearm discomfort and later called a flexor mass strain."

"After Bundy was initially examined, the Orioles said an MRI on the elbow came back clean."

Agreed. I've seen this before and the fact that they shut him down for the season is concerning to me. I hate to see them go the rest route, start back up next spring and find out it still hurts, give him some injections then eventually have him get TJ surgery next summer which means he'll basically lose two years like Bundy has done.

Hopefully it's nothing but if there is one thing the Orioles past has shown is that when young pitchers are shut down for "shoulder or elbow strains", good things do not happen afterwards.

True but if the doctors say don't cut yet, you don't cut yet.
