This blind squirrel has found a few nuts but overall still a blind squirrel.

I swear ive seen more DPs this series than this entire season.

It was this bad in Houston, too.

Eh f*** it hit rock bottom now.

Getting no hit would at least be rock bottom.

Agree. The situational offense has been terrible for awhile now.

Guess we just gotta hope Mune and Colson end up with careers closer to Schwarber than Gallo.

Honestly if I am him I choke up and try to just get base hits for the rest of the year. He'd probably still run into a couple homers.

Guy who will K a lot of people against team that K's a lot. Stoppable force meet moveable object.

Colson's gonna set the all time K record isn't he?

I think you gotta give Hagen a chance to start next year. He could be HUGE for our rotation.

I am not a proponent of attempting to injure another teams player to rile up your team. I would argue that deliberately rolling over the 2nd basement is even more "fake tough" than the chicken wing, because at that point you're being very irresponsible with your baseball moves. We don't need to be actually dirty, just enough to ruffle some feathers.

You do it because your team needs a spark and maybe a benches clearing nothingburger provides that spark. He wasn't trying to hurt anyone or actually make it a tough play. He seems to do this stuff when we're getting steamrolled, first against Boston now against these guys. This team needs to wake the f*** up. With a little extra luck, we are tying that game or taking the lead (On Meidroth's .800 xBA line drive) AFTER Sam did this. It did seem to provide a spark. Let's not be soft as baby s%*# about this and understand that sometimes you just gotta get your hands dirty when you're competing in sports. And what Sam did isn't even that flagrant. Just enough to start a conversation and some mild yelling to clear the benches.

Like it or not it seemed to ignite the team and the offense enough to look like they were actually trying near the end of that game. Sometimes you need a spark. It is what it is. Can't let feelings get in the way.

Lmfao the bad luck right when we didnt need it is fucking comical. Baseball baby!

Luckaneers since the Meidroth at bat

Had to throw some bad luck into the mix FFS

Its just hilarious how anti clutch this team is now.

Please please let this be the inning where our entire offenses slump ends.

Hope that Meidroth at bat wakes this team the f*** up.

Cleveland is also a terrible baseball team. Maybe slightly less terrible than the Sox. Im not buying them sweeping us.

They're all collectively in the blender. Not sure i am sold on this Shoman dude. How does your entire offense fall off a cliff like this and completely s%*# itself with RISP so consistently? At bats not competitive at all. Not making pitchers work for it.

It feels like theyre not allowed to anymore until the 7th inning or something.

This umpire is one of thr worst I have seen this yesr.
