Jake Cave roasts Greg Bird on Twitter

@_GBIRD33 why? Youre not gonna touch anything

Ok, “roasts” may be a little strong. Bird Tweeted that he’ll need some extra bats for live batting practice vs Chapman, since he averages 100mph with his fastball. Cave replied with the zinger that he won’t even touch Chapman. Bird is new to Twitter, having just joined a couple of months ago, but Cave seems to be a social media vet, considering he has over 15K tweets. Greg later responded with “haha ouch.” Bird might need to work on his comeback game…

I love seeing this kind of stuff from players.
