According to trainer Steve Sayles, via PR man Bob Rose, [Brett Anderson’s] strain [is] in the musculotendinous junction

[Original lyrics here.]

Musculotendinous Junction, as performed by the Dr. James Andrews Sisters

Feelin’ low
Pitchin’ slow
Don’t want to go
Right back where J. Devine is bound

Way down south in Birmingham
I mean south in Alabam’
There’s an old place where pitchers go
To get their UCL replaced

They throw strikes or walks for miles
Ignore that pitch-count modern style
It’s the odd slider that makes you grunt
Or just pitching for Dusty Baker

It’s a junction where the sinews meet
With dysfunction, a burst of pain will greet you

Come on down, go under his care
Come on down, you’ll find him there
So long Oaktown, I’m heading for
Musculotendinous Junction now

    What is “a big word I charge $100,000 for saying”?

    Musculotendinous Junction, what’s your function?
    Hookin’ up muscles and membranes and tendons.

    Well at least we can all admit that the AL is right about the DH.

    In addition, a designated hitter will be used in the All-Star game every year, including in NL cities.
    …

    “The changes are designed to make the All-Star game as competitive a contest as it could possibly be,” said Rob Manfred, baseball’s executive vice president of labor relations.

    I hope the A’s are remembering to get their value cards punched by Andrews’ receptionist. One more ligament job and they get a free golem.

      1. “ligament job”

      2. In the all-A’s production of LOTR, I think Blevins plays Gollum

      you better hope to God you don't show up in this little community, because you'll wish you had never come

      We already had Olmedo Sáenz.

        Good call. I’ve always thought Olmedo bore an uncomfortable resemblance to Manuel Noriega (who is also most likely only animated through fiendish, macabre means).

          We used to call him Mr. Happy. I think he might have broken if he smiled.
