Big Energy doesn’t make that play.

Like the TLR move to bring ReyLo in for Lynn in a 2-1 and a man on. Lynn gives out too many homers. We have no margin for error on this game.

Didn’t get the memo of not letting Jose Ramirez beat us.

Yes pls. No scrubs tonight, need our best relievers only tonight.

Take most curves. Give take signs from the dugout. Can’t hit the curve anyway, work the count and we may get some walks. This team has no coaching or lots of the players are uncoachable.

And the defense. Rather be playing Sheets who is hitting everybody.

We may need to give take signs to some of these undisciplined hitters.

If Pollock was more disciplined his count would have been 3-0. He should not have swung at any curve ball. He can’t hit a curve, Vaughn should not have been hitting second in the first place. Moncada should have been hitting second. Sheets should have been in the line up. Bad TLR lineup construction tonight has cost us some runs.

If you can’t hit the curve don’t swing at them. They all end below the zone. Everybody wants to be a hero. No plate discipline. Miss a contact hitter like Madrigal. BTW, Vaughn should not be hitting second against the tough righty. Moncada is the ideal second hitter nowadays, another TLR unforced error.

Our catching corps is awful. Was Reese better?

Hedges is out of the game. That is pure concrete in there.

The Cleveland Predators.

The official scorer wanted to beef up Naylor batting average.

Time to try Romy at second . Harrison has to sit.

Are you referring to Andrus? At least he got the ball up in the air twice. The second one could have been a sacrifice fly. Menechino has not gotten to him yet.

He needs to be pinched hit for with Sheets if he comes up with men on base again. He is our Lenyn Sosa tonight an automatic out.

Grandal DP was the rally killer. He should not have been in the lineup as DH tonight in the first place. Or at least not hitting 6 th.

We have been wasting many good starts this season.

Thank you TLR for another inexplicable lineup construction tonight. Another unforced error IMO.

We would have had more runs if we had Sheets as DH instead of Grandal.

And we leave our hottest hitter Sheets grabbing some bench instead. That is TLR ball for you.

The chance of Grandal hitting into a double play is higher IMO. At any rate, Sheets should have been the DH instead of Grandal against the righty pitcher. He has been our best hitter lately. TLR roster construction continues to be bad.

Absolutely right. Sheets has been our best hitter lately. He needs to be in the lineup. DH instead of Grandal or at worst in for Vaughn.

Swung at the first pitch. At least he got it up in the air.
