Not sure why Pena stopped trying to bunt... Because our manager is a dummy. |

Awful. Gave two away against Baltimore. Now another one run loss in extras with your massive-salaried closer. One run loss after decided to sit one of your best hitters, when Tucker is still nursing his bruise from sixteen years ago. Now you're 2-5 over the last seven games and Seattle is hanging right in there. You can’t blame Hader for that one. He can’t pitch 5 innings a game. |

This offense is AAA right now. When it’s so hard to score, you have to try and manufacture runs. This is why I can’t stand this “Manager of the Year” talk with Espada. Any manager can sit there and tell his guys to swing away and hope for the best.
Also, they keep telling us all that Blanco has thrown too many innings. So, why isn’t he done after 5 innings? Why isn’t there a guy ready to go after the Harper double? Why the lack of action unless Kikuchi is trying to finish the 6th inning?
Also, pinch hitting for Meyers when Yordan is out in LF and then letting Whitcomb hit when you could easily slot Altuve there in front of Bregman? This game was just inexplicable.
They can’t keep losing to winning teams and thinking postseason baseball.

Seattle won and is just 3.5 games back again. Our expected W/L record based on run differential is 73 wins. Finding ways to lose. We're nine games under .500 against teams with a winning record. This is not looking like a team that can make a deep run.

Espada is using him like an idiot, but when you're making almost $20 million to be lights out not even having to go through a whole lineup once, you'd better answer the bell. |

Hader has done his job it is time for the Offense to Stand Up and Realize they are the reason they are losing so many games.

These kinds of basics are what they’ve been failing at all season. Years, not just this season. It has been like this since the Hinch days. I was hoping a new manager would change that. Nope. |

Every loss is frustrating, but everybody is going to lose. You can't always execute what you're wanting.
