Grandal hit tool? 

We can't hit.

$18 million + for a starter that misses no bats.  $18 million + for a catcher who sucks. $13 million + for a closer you barely use.

 

Rick Hahn SUCKS

The shitty performances by Grandal and Keuchel are on them.  They need to step up.  The lack of using Hendriks is on TLR.

Can’t start every hitter 2-0 and expect success. 

I like Keuchel.  I liked the signing.  But he’s not been good this year.  He tries to use pinpoint accuracy, but he’s missing way too many pitches.

So many singles up the middle

On the verge of a sweep.  First real test of the season.

Goddamnit Grandal

Grandal is awesome. 

Can’t give up any more Dallas.  Nice K there, but need one more.

Exactly.  Sweep seems likely right now.  It’ll be vital to see how the team responds.

Never thought I’d say this: Engel can’t get here soon enough.

Shifting....does exist.  Started by the Pirates over a decade ago.

How many 2-0 counts has Dallas had already?

Ferfucksake.

Nice pick Jose!

Tony is here to teach us the ways of yesteryear.

Tell that to the manager stuck decades past

See where former Gold Glover Keuchel already did himself no favors...

Well, this is the week that’s the first real test, and all the focus will be on TLR with the Cardinals in town and likely a 3 1/2 game lead cut to only 1/2 if Indians’ 3-0 lead against Minny holds up.

We can still win this, but need to get on the board ASAP.  Taillon has given three or more runs in 5 of his 8 starts.  He’s more than beatable.

It's been around forever.  They shifted against Ted Williams.

Hey look a ball hit up the middle fielded for an out. 

Team looks completely flat right now.

Will our thunderous offense score a run against this 5era reclamation project?

Cool story on giolito

Yankees’ pitching on just an insane run.

Anderson swing through a belt high fastball there...really scuffling.  He usually scalds that pitch.

Of course our hitting disappears right when I am about to go up for a couple games
