I was wondering how Abreu hit that high fastball on the ground and then bam! He's hurt.

They're pressing right now.

Oh get real. It has not been an embarrassment. Lots of good in this year so far. This is a young team still learning so they're gonna look crappy sometimes. It's just magnified because it's a short season and there's still 43 games left. "Strawman" LOL.

There is a lot of talent but it's all very young. And you're right, they still need help, especially in the AL with the Yankees, Twins and Astros all winning 100+ last year.

Welp, time to turn this one off. Woof.

Which is honestly encouraging. They're .500 with a ton of injuries and some really bad games.

You think they're all of a sudden gonna win 100 games (or whatever the equivalent of 100 games is for this season)? Be realistic. Get to .500 for the first time since like 2012.

After the crap we've dealt with since 2008? We have radically different outlooks I guess.

This is a team that can easily put runs up in bunches but right now everything feels like a big struggle.

Candelario is hot right now it seems. Took an inside fastball for a base hit the other way, then took that outside pitch into the alley for a triple.

I think some of the offensive woes can be blamed on facing some hot pitching but also good teams make their own luck. Hopefully we can see some more guys get hot and spark the offense soon or they're gonna lose a lot of games.

Good 2-0 pitch. This guy is like Bummer.

Everything is magnified because of the short season. If they started off 8-8 in a normal year I'd be pumped.

I don't think McCann knew what this guy was throwing. Really bad at bat.

Stinks to waste a good performance by Keuchel, but it's encouraging that he's been so good this year.

Mazara looks like he needs a day off

Hey a hit!

Bad call again. Grandal really wearing it this year on these calls.

Keuchel reminds me so much of Buehrle. Excellent off the mount there.

Still 44 games left. If they end up out of the playoffs? Maybe that's the key to hire some new coaches.

Just a big slump right now. Hope they can get out of this soon.

Good hitting by Candelario. 1 run seems like a lot right now.

It'll definitely be nice to get Timmy and Madrigal back.

Umps are somethin' else this year.

Keuchel has to be frustrating to hit against. Lot of bad swings on pitches out of the zone.
