BBaez. 0-2, with a walk and K. He's seen 18 pitches thru 3 PAs though, and only swung and missed at 2 of them.

 

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand he just struck out on 3 pitches, swinging at the last 2 out of the zone.

I know, right? I mean one moment, you're hanging out with the boys. Next thing you know, Chris Valaika comes in, and he's all "hey, bro. Guess whose name's all over Twitter?" And Javy's all "who?" and Valaika's all "you." "The [expletive] are these fan boy bitches saying about me now?" Snapped Javy. "They're saying that the Padres have shown some level of interest in you." "The Padres?" Replied a suddenly attentive Javy, spewing Mr. Pibb all over Christian Villanueva's new Chucks. "[expletive] are the Padres showing interest in me for?" And with a casual shrug of the shoulders, Valaika replied "I guess they find you interesting." And then he left the room to prepare for work.

 

As he was known to do in these situations, soft spoken, light hitting middle infielder Jonathan Mota scooched in and gently placed a brotherly hand on Javy's shoulder. "Don't even worry about it, man. These things pop up on Twitter all the time." "Don't even worry about it?" Snapped Javy, eliciting a reflexive flinch from gritty outfielder John Andreoli. "You heard what Josh Vitters said. I could be traded! You've been with this organization for what, sixteen years, and nobody's ever shown interest in you. How the [expletive] you going to tell me don't worry about it?" An apologetic Javy soon broke the deafening silence which he, himself had induced. "Listen, man," he assured Mota, who was now holding back tears of his own. "I was out of line, and you know I didn't mean what I said." After taking a deep breath, he added "but damn, that just fucks up my whole day. I just hope it doesn't effect my ability to keep my head in the game tonight."

It does.

LOL thats almost like a movie scene there. Just saying you cant expect early 20's kids to not get emotional from time to time. Javy really wants to be a cub and really wants to help the team ASAP.
