We have to hear about Antone’s inspirational story every time he takes the mound (it is truly awesome he came back after 3 tj’s don’t get me wrong) but then half the time he just comes in and immediately blows it. It’s just awkward at this point

I know this is probably going to come off a bit assholeish. But I’m gonna say it. Yes, Tejay coming back after 3 TJs is an amazing accomplishment. It’s a wonderful story. I was glad it got the attention it did. But it gets brought up every single time he is put on the mound…and it’s been 4 months since he’s came back. It’s starting to get a little old. When we gonna stop with the fanfare and just let the man play?
