Sad Sam has been living up to that title of late. To wit: 0-3, 7.02 ERA in his last three starts. He's dealing with tendinitis, and wasn't cleared to start tonight's game until a Wednesday bullpen session, or "bully" in the game's obsolete vernacular.

Ubaldo Jimenez

#30 / Pitcher / Cleveland Indians

DID YOU KNOW: with the exception of Mat Latos' slider, Jimenez' slide piece is the hardest pitch in the majors to hit for a dinger, or "jack job" in the game's obsolete vernacular, per this WSJ piece from Based Ball's Jeff Sullivan.
