Odd Post Of The Day

This is a blog post about potato chips.....no I am not high.

I swear I'm not high, and considering he gets drug tested, I don't think Jason Hammel is either. After he had to leave his last start on July 7 because of a severe cramp in his hand, Hammel received some interesting advice from his doctor. "For my cramps, if it's a chronic thing, [the doctor] said, 'Potato chips,' because they have a lot of potassium and the sea salt helps retain water." Well, Hammel tried it, and was seen chomping down on some potato chips during his start yesterday against the powerful Texas Rangers. Next thing you know, Hammel had given up one run on three hits in six innings. Keep shoving the chips in your face, Jason. It's working.
