Huh?

They fought to tie it up.

This BP is a big pile of dog shlt with a gas can on top of it. Nothing more to it.

We just don't have a winning mentality right now. Altuve not taking an 81mph curve ball in between his 2&7 on the back could be the difference between a winning and losing home stand against the toughest part of the schedule. It's just loser baseball.

Meanwhile, the below-average A's just keep winning while we squander away games

Padres up to 7 runs scored in the inning.

A game that was a win if Altuve doesn't help the Padres out by avoiding the HBP.

8-3 in extras. Check that, 10-3.

Bullpen is horrible. Has been, and is. Team can't win unless the offense is slugging.

Either Crane pays to change it or we are what we are.
I love Texas Aggie sports, but I love Texas A&M more.

You can't seriously have just watched the same half inning I did and feel like everybody on the field gave their best effort

Raley is not mediocre. He's done a decent job outside of a few outings.
I wish he were mediocre. We could use some mediocre relievers.

Can't believe people are defending Raley. I know he's an Ag, but he's not good.

One bad outing or a couple bad outings blow up a bullpen ERA.

Player A pitches in 18 games. 1 IP each appearance. He throws 15 shut out but gets touched up twice for 2, 3, 3, & 4 runs. ERA of 6.

Players B pitches in 18 games. 1 IP each appearance. He throws 7 shut out innings. Gives up 1 run in each of the rest. ERA 5.5.

Who would you rather have?

The Dodgers and Padres then the Red Sox are the easier part of the schedule?

I'm at the game and mad. Annoying Padres fans to my left being obnoxious. Let me rant without responding with logic

Altuve is the guy you should be more upset with. He's the one with the high salary and should be counted on to not ever go 0-6. He had a chance to win it in the 10th and didn't.

I typed "toughest" and it autocorrected to "lightest" somehow. I'm not that drunk... yet

Lightest part of the schedule? Dodgers and Padres are both playing over .600 baseball.

Nm, autocorrect sux

He's the guy you want as a lefty specialist and about the 5th/6th best arm in a bullpen. We're using him in high leverage vs a bunch of righties. His stuff plays well enough and gets a bunch of Ks. He good enough to be a regular in big league bullpen.

How do you ask that has been looking to not get hit for his entire career with a baseball to completely ignore what has got to be instinct at this point and get hit while you sit on your couch?

I wanted him to get hit more than anything, but sometimes you just can't tell your body what to do when instinct kicks in and you aren't looking to do it.

Altuve wears the pitch and we win. Instead, the Raley and Bielak bad news bears squad comes our and buries us. Then Altuve ****s up a playable out with a terrible throw.

Lol it was an auto correct from toughest to lightest. I'm obviously aware of how hard this stretch of the schedule is, hence why I brought up the point.

I'm not comparing players.

I want to know what on earth makes you think Raley has been great the past few outings without using ERA.

Because I agree ERs for BP are useless for reasons you mentioned but also because a pitcher may allow runs but they don't always go to his ERA.

I'm saying you can't just throw out his season ERA and say he sucks.

I disagree. He's got a career ERA just under 7. What am I missing?

He's pissed the bullpen gave up 7 runs and is saying the defense gave up all while completely ignoring tying it up in the 10th.

He can post whatever he wants. I just don't agree they gave up when the BP goes out and gives hits away like candy in the top of the 11th.

Demoralizing loss. SD is a good team but you can't lose by 7 in extras.

Kind of misconstruing what I said but yeah I was probably overly critical. There were two annoying Padres fans who that entire inning were yelling in our direction non stop. For every batter that came up. So I was a little angry and probably oversimplified it.

Apologies for misconstruing and I understand. Very frustrating top half and I would have been super annoyed at those Padres fans too.

Hopefully we bounce back and win the last two.

And hey, you at least saw 3 runs tonight!

Well, Framber looked good. Hopefully Odorizzi follows suit.

I wish we hadn't given up on Cishek.

After a few beers the word misconstruing looks a lot like menstruating.
