Kopech done. Pretty decent job .

Going 1-8 vs Cleveland, Minnesota and KC is no bueno.

He gutted it out there with less than his best.

I'm sure next year Hahn will realize building a roster as if everyone will stay healthy the entire season isn't a sustainable strategy ?

You mean he will actually listen to Balta?

At least we have Olympic class sprinters coming up this inning.

The only consolation about Friday is we're not playing the Angels IN Anaheim...which would inevitably mean 2-3 more dramatic bullpen losses.

Except not so heartbreaking as last year.

And I don't have to stay up after midnight to watch an implosion.  I can be pissed off before 10:00.

Abreu just gives up on too many at bats these days

When is it time to admit that this team cannot hit? 

Brad Keller sucks.

Good thing our division isn't any good.

That's my opinion based on what baseball writers/pundits are saying on sportsblab. 

My own personal sportsblab says  no one wants boring baseball. HR's are exciting more than any one single thing in baseball. Anyone who thinks MLB wants stolen bases, warning track fly outs and the players to adapt  more than HR's has holes in their heads. Please tell me why if anyone want's players to adapt why are they switching the shift rules next year ?

To make it easier on the players to squirt singles through.

Last year with Goodwin Hamilton and the rest we had two 4X100 teams along with Leury Engel Anderson Robert Moncada.

Albeit oft injured sprint teams...

Paltry offense....

This offense sucks

It's not over til it's over but either way you got us 1 W and that's an accomplishment these days.

No no no.

Even Manfred isn't that dumb to deliberately sabotage the sport.

Speeding it up like THIS is going to cause every teenager to give up on the sport.

The opposing pitchers have figured out why mess around......just throw the ball over the plate, these dudes can't hit anyway.

So now you're saying the hitters won't have to adapt ?

There’s nothing they do good except hit lefties.  They look to have no shot against RHP.

Would have gloved to be out there on the fan deck with a couple ice-cold Falstaffs!!

Could Banks start?

No, they'll have to adapt by hitting more line drives vs uppercut swings.

Easy big fella. You got us 1 win , you can get us another one. No need to give up hope.

Show a little faith there's magic in the night. She aint' a beauty but, hey, she's all right !
