Lol why are you combing them and saying it’s “sizzling” as if Vaughn isn’t struggling and hitting .167? Don’t get me wrong, it’s very early and I still have plenty of faith in Vaughn...just a very strange way to try and frame it

Fundamentals are awful all across this team. The bats being slow to start a season is excusable, but professionals making this many routine errors and mental mistakes certainly isn’t. It’s best a dead horse...but well coached teams don’t look like this

What’s with our pitchers throwing fastballs over the plate with 2 strikes?

Vaughn is struggling with very hittable fastballs

Wow Vaughn...2 91 mph straight fastballs right down the middle

TA Moncada Abreu Yermin Robert Grandal Vaughn Eaton Nick Not bitching too much about the lineup today....but I would go with this if I were in control. Moncada and Eaton switch if Moncada doesn’t start hitting soon

I like Jason as an announcer...but he sucks as an interviewer

Yeesh 99...I don’t want to be THAT guy, but I hope Carlos’ arm is ok tomorrow

Ump felt bad for Carlos lol

No fucking way

Kid is going to hit .300 every year of his career. That only 1 swing and miss stat is just crazy

Did every one of our pitchers improve their change up this year? Is that a Katz specialty?

Nicky driving in runs with a drive to the gap...gotta love it

Plesac throwing meatballs. Just what our offense needed. Hopefully this confidence will spark something

No way that was only 431

Plesac is gonna have to change his underwear between innings. That was close YERMIN BOMB!!

The saddest part is how relatively little extra $ needed to be spent to take the roster over the top. It was very obvious 1 more hitter for depth/ DH rotation was needed along with another SP for depth/insurance to the very iffy combo of Cease and Rodon. I never expected him to spend huge on a SP like Bauer, but JR bumping the payroll up to a whopping 146/147 would have made a ginormous difference. Imagine this roster with LaStella and Robby Ray? That’s so little for a fanbase to ask for... Also out of curiosity, how much of a talent evaluation issue do people think plays into this? Is JR really the evil owner that refused to spend another penny, or did our front office evaluate the roster and think it was good enough? I feel like a good portion of the blame can be put on JR, but I do think some blame gets lost going in the Hahn/KW direction.

Imagine how big of an impact an extra $10mil spent in free agency would have made...

Gotta take that lamb

Don’t get me wrong, Bieber is filthy and not scoring is 1 thing...but not getting to a single 3 ball count is just bad.

More like 2+ years

How awesome would this game be with a packed house? Might because I’m so used to no fans, but this almost has a late season/ playoff feel to it with the crowd energy

No reason to bring him out for this early of a regular season game.

Bieber could get through this lineup for 12 innings without breaking a sweat

The fans really need organize their “MVP” chants
