After how bad most of the vets looked game 1, they should be punished to play another. TLR is way too nice to these guys. No wonder they weren't ready to play game 1.

TLR at his finest everyone. Get embarrassed game 1 and throw out the worst lineup imaginable game 2. Bravo.

Hey, it took Leury 20 ABs to get a hit right?

After the plays TA has made after Keuchel left...you definitely get the feeling they were trying to sabotage Keuchel.

After the draft in July

Fortunately for Luis, most of his offensive value isn't put into walks.

40 minutes after

Yaz when he sees Severino run in from the bullpen

Robert already has a 120 game sample prior to this season. He was a 5 WAR player who looked amazing for 3 months and was terrible for a month. I think he'll be a streaky hitter in general. Hopefully his struggles recently are just mechanical or the league adjusting to him. He'll always have a chance to adjust back.

AV has 3 balls hit over 100 MPH today.

The projection systems definitely saw Robert as more like Mike Cameron coming into this season. Truth is that Cameron at his peak was a 4-5 WAR player who was massively underrated because of the era he played in. I still think Robert has a much higher ceiling, but a floor of Mike Cameron isn't the end of the world.

I thought it was problematic when I saw him getting blown away by a 94 MPH fastball in that last game against Seattle. That's the kind of stuff he did when he struggled at the end of 2020.

I thought him opening his stance was supposed to help him hit the inside fastball and not go for those low sliders away.

Robert is in a slump. He's been in one since the last game against Seattle.

Seeing everyone trying to pull outside breaking pitches is pretty frustrating. You know he's gonna throw them out there. Stone is right, he's barely pitching righties inside.

Still got more errors than hits lol

Banks making Keuchel look like a minor league pitcher.

Vaughn has barrel'd Bieber up twice.

Little did you know that the strong start would only last 1 start.

3 shutout innings from Banks.

Wasn't that opening day in Cleveland in 08?

lol now TA knows how to field

Rosario just pulled a TA

LMAO the scoreboard guy sure thought TA went.

That's about the only silver lining to this game. Keuchel might suck, but we gotta hope he doesn't completely suck for another 6 starts.
