This pitcher’s on fire, his heater enthralls,
The batters complain about his wicked curveball
But Kade he don’t care, you can talk to the wall, oh no no
[ DRUM FILL ]
In Arkansas they will see you no more,
You’re in the bigs now, you beat down the door
Double-A was too easy for you, you found it a bore, oh no no
[DRUM FILL INTENSIFIES]
Taken third overall, a gift from above
They whiff at the slider, ground out on the curve
They miss the fastball despite the read on the gun
We found you in the rotation, we thought the season was done
KAAAAAAAAAAADE
KAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAADEEEE
Lineups:
You might have heard that Kade Anderson is making his debut tonight. In prime time on Fox. In front of an expected sell-out crowd. Against the Cubs, currently boasting the best lineup in the big leagues and the likely NL MVP. So like, no pressure, kid.
It’s 2010s weekend at the park, so I think the Cubs being sponsored by Motorola’s Razr is very on-theme. Just thinking about it gives me traumatic flashbacks to when you only got 300 text messages a month on a mobile plan and I was always afraid to open my T-Mobile bill at the end of the month. I guess that was more of a late 2000s thing but spiritually it is the 2010s to me.
News:
The Mariners officially called up LHP Kade Anderson to make his big-league debut. LHP Jhonathan Díaz was DFA’d to make room for Anderson on the 25-man roster.
Bryan Woo update | Lookout Landing
With Kade Anderson officially called up today, nothing has been formalized regarding whether the Mariners will return to a six-man rotation, back to the piggyback, move a starter to the bullpen, or put a starter on the IL. It sounds like the team is waiting for the results of Woo’s bullpen tomorrow to determine which direction they’ll go in.
Additionally, Matt Brash threw a bullpen yesterday; he’s scheduled to throw to live hitters sometime this week.
