Try swinging a 32 oz bat towards a 95 MPH fastball with a bum shoulder. Not all cortisone shots are miracle makers.

That's a tiny sample size, literally a series. I'm not looking to dump Gio because of some nonsensical notion of "choking."

My avatar was known to "choke" as far back as 2007. Seems pretty silly now.

Sorry, can't bring myself to want to make a change because someone is clutch or not.

and, I said I really don't believe in the concept of clutch or choking, but I have seen Espinosa go cold for long stretches, then tear off an absurd week or two. That's great, if the hot streak hits at the right time, and awful if it doesn't
