Updated thread, thx for updates.

I want to disagree with you, but I cannot argue against a -34 wRC+. My expectations of a backup catcher has been traumatized by Thole, Navarro and Salty.

At least the starters haven't been too bad, Martin and JPA

So I believe it's the same middle finger issue where the edge of that finger is placed along the seams for the curveball grip. Maybe he should scrap the curveball and use some other offspeed pitches (changeup and slider). I know he doesn't use the slider now so would be starting from scratch and need to pitch some in the minors maybe while he develops it. But it seems this problem is not going to go away if he just keeps doing the same thing. Only other alternative will be to shut him down for a very long time to let this thing fully heal.

I saw this coming last night. Too bad. Has anyone actually seen a close up of his middle finger on his pitching hand?

[Jonn]

He really shouldn't have started the sixth with the way he was labouring and how f***ed his finger looked.

[Gary]

Jays medical staff is bordering the incompetence level of the Mets medical staff.

[Abomination]

Maybe they should just remove the entire nail rather than part of it. The edge of the partial nail is probably digging into his finger.

Just remove the entire finger and another one for fun and maybe he'll pitch like Mordecai Brown.

The chances of Davis getting plunked here is pretty high.
