HB makes too many mistakes up in the zone. His main thing is he doesn’t fool hitters. These AB’s are endless.

Rays took the lead over the Mariners at least.

What a bunch of weak bullshit hits. So frustrating.

What a bunch of weak bullshit hits. So frustrating. And bad pitching. Our ace defender Peña somehow botched keeping the ball on the infield.

Also, brilliant call to have a guy who allows steals from behind the plate.

I don’t see why they don’t just take the offspeed and swing at the heater.

Also, these are the games where you need to manufacture ways to get on base.

Yeah, this’ll be a loss. They’re being dominated.

The magic we had in Arlington is gone now that we are at home. Just bad at bat after bad at bat.

What is it with this team at Home? They played the absolute worst baseball in front of the Home Crowd. They Better hope most of the Games in the playoffs are not at home.

What honestly was Bregman gonna do with that pitch? Should’ve been taken.

I've tried to keep my cool about Maldonado, given that the manager loves him, and no one would say bench me if the manger wants him to start. And I conceded the day he came back for another season that Baker wasn't gonna change regarding that.
But to learn that Maldy has caught the 5th most innings in MLB after suffering a broken hand and a sports hernia the second half last year is infuriating. No wonder he's had his worst season defensively, and the part of his skillset he's supposed to earn his keep on

Maldonado is a big boy. If he can’t hang, he should tell the coach and the team that seems to worship him. Anything else would be selfish. Surely, he knows it himself that his presence in the lineup hurts the team.

Surely, he knows it himself that his presence in the lineup hurts the team. The funny thing about Maldy this year is that his hitting is very bad. However, his defense for which he is known for is putrid. He can’t throw a base stealer out and he also drops a lot of pitches.

Fixing Brown would be easy, sit him for two games, piggyback start him for two games and then enjoy his dominating performances in the playoffs. The kid has already exceeded his previous innings high by over 20 and we are still 4 potential starts from the end of the year.
