Zach Britton and The Art of Tweeting

Late last night, the following tweet went out from Zach Britton's Twitter account:

I blocked out the number but what appeared to happen was the accidental sharing of Jake Arrieta's phone number with the world. Britton intended to send Jake a direct message...but forgot the "D". This is not new...comedian Joe Rogan accidentally tweeted his number to all his followers once.

Then came this:

Covering for a mistake or savviest Tweeter ever? Britton's only been on Twitter for 8 days. If it was a prank, that's a quick learning curve. Just like his big league pitching.

But 512 is a Texas area code. And Arrieta is from Texas. Oops.
