Bummer can't throw strikes, Heuer has some control issues as well, Foster can't fool anyone anymore, Marshall can't throw strikes and is extremely hittable, and Hendriks has already given up 2 homers this year (probably more than he gave up all of last season). I know bullpens are volatile...but damn.

His pop up with Robert on 3rd and 1 out was so pathetic. I don't remember the last time I saw a hitter swing at a 90 MPH fastball middle/middle and pop it up as weakly as he did.

lol no you don't. He's blown 3 games himself.

Also I'd like to see how much this ump hosed us on calls at the plate. He consistently gave that inside strike to the Royals. Not to mention his missed call on a slider right down the middle.

It is on him, but at the same time, it should have never come down to a 1 run lead. We should have scored a lot more early in the game.

Eaton wasted a strike doing that too, just stupid.

God this lineup sucks.

No because he's most likely gonna pull the ball anyhow.

Crochet is throwing 94...

This is why Manfred ball is ridiculously stupid. The Royals didn't even attempt to hit.

I don't think so, but they sure look alike

Better win it in the 9th, cause with our hitting with RISP, we're not gonna win this game in extras.

Holland is not a good matchup against our big hitters.

Man this bullpen could not have been anymore overrated. So far the only guys who have looked dominant are Kopech and Crochet.

Hendriks just does not look dominant right now.

Pinch runner for Yermin

I thought Hendriks would throw more breaking stuff.

He's the last outfielder we have.

Christ how many balls are we failing to get over Merrifield's head?

This ump should have taken one off the balls, not that ump in Seattle.

We've gotten screwed by umps pretty hard so far this year, but this one tops the list.

How can Zack be back to first? That's bullshit.

Home plate ump is definitely betting against us.

EATON!

The Royals have had a guy in RISP twice this game and gotten him in both times. We have 1 hit in, what, 10 situations with RISP?
