Is this just a .500 team again this year? The funks they go into are deep.

I think they are better than that. Just hope the bullpen can get much better. It's been a major weakness.

Can we get 2+ runs with Yordan-Correa-Yuli due up?

Emmanuel was warming up. But Dusty would rather go with two guys who have proven they suck

Will we? Doubtful

Kent Emanuel threw 8 innings of shutout baseball and hasn't been heard from again. Dusty instead picks two guys with a combined ERA of +16.00. Unbelievable.

Brantley not even contemplating throwing home in a 1-run game in the 8th is infuriating


No one in our outfield can throw.

What's the point of going home? He has no chance to throw him out. If he goes home, they have another man on third, and a sac fly plates another run.

Brantley throws home on the previous play and DJ played another run with that ground ball.

There are lots of things to complain about, but this one is a bad one to gripe about.

I take my chances of him throwing a guy out at the plate vs. us scoring 2+ against Chapman in the 9th

I know...I really know...that this series isn't as big to win as we want it to be, relative to the season long big picture...

but dammit if I don't want to beat these ass clowns badly, and that makes losing to them suck even more.

Don't worry guys. Dusty is saving Emmanuel for tomorrow to come in when we're down 8-0.

Depending on which version of Lance shows up, that's a real possibility.

Who besides Stanton has done shlt?

Maybe our offense should get it going and actually work into a bullpen so we can get some similar results. We're free swinging so much right now it's crazy.

I have a feeling this team will do this all year. As soon as you start getting encouraged about the improvement... they will go on a cold streak. We've seen it twice now this season. Our bullpen is just too inconsistent right now. We need guys to get healthy, or we need to make a trade at some point

He's plated most of them but they've scored 13 runs in two games. That's pretty good.

Their offense has actually been awful still this series if you remove Stanton.

They have only barreled maybe 3 balls in 2 games outside of him - just finding extreme luck, getting favorable calls, Astros errors, bullpen guys walking bad hitters, etc.

Although it seems bad it's really not that bad.

We've won the last 3 series. It's a bad 3 game stretch in which most of this crap is self inflicted.

I don't feel like we're getting shelled and boat raced.

In my opinion, our cold streaks are a lot more due to offense. The BP has blown some games but the offense has gone so ice cold at times that it's not covering any flaws.

Feels like forever since we've had more than a solo HR and multiple HRs in a game.

A lot will disagree with me here, but Yuli should be batting 3rd right now. Guys need to be on base for Yordan.

You won't find many who disagree with that right now.

It feels like Correa is running in place. He has 0 speed right now
