nice pitch! one to go

Quero our catcher of the future. Would not mind platooning him and Teel.

huge out there for Eisert...can he get out of it completely, though?

Welp

offff course

Well...that was, not exactly shocking.

Are you kidding me ....

Well that sucked. 

Put pressure on the pitcher by loading the bases, something like THAT happens about 50% of the time, at least to the bad teams in the league with relatively inexperienced bullpens at the major league level.

Ballgame

Eisert has nothing

And then the door caves in...

Relaxed a bit after getting Yelich out, that feels also like it was a 50% chance to be additional runs after WP.

 

Now Wilson is on the hook for what looks like a likely loss.  Which sucks for him.

What’s Johnny Cueto up to? Can we just sign him instead of bullpen games?

Nice block by Quero

Time to start selling City Connect jerseys and hats again...the unprecedented first-time ever collaboration between MLB and NBA LIKE EVER...in the same city, to boot.

 

What Ishbia's brother can copy this same idea in Phoenix with the Suns/DBacks, although those color combinations just don't work well together, at all.

Not sure why you’d want a bullpen game when your bullpen sucks.

You know that man will dance on the mound for you for at least 5 innings every time

Never a big fan of loading the bases when u have 2 outs. I know it wasn't a great matchup for Eisert but go after the hitter instead rather than taking away his ability to pitch inside.

There's little point to making it a game early when your offense tends to score most of their runs in the first couple of innings and you have the worst bullpen in baseball (maybe not statistically, but talent-wise, at least).

guys I have news: we still suck.

No offense and terrible bullpen equals awful games.  It’s amazing how easy this team makes losing seem. 

@WestEddy you start the GT and then no-show, I blame you. come back and maybe we'll come back.
