What To Do About LaMonte Wade Jr. & Shortstop

Another week, another injury. LaMonte Wade Jr, the rock of the lineup, has fallen. Can anything be done to reduce the damage? Bob and the boys have some crazy ideas. Also, we need to talk about shortstop. The carousel seems to never stop. Is it time to look outside the organization? Also, in the lightning round they talk offense, MLB stat changes, and a little crying baby.
