Sometimes you just get beat.

Being mad at strikeouts specifically is a complaint that hasn't been relevant for 40 years.Colson also has a higher batting average and more homers than Mune with RISP. Mune has far less chances though.

Colson's problem is that he doesn't walk as much as we thought he would.Let's pump the breaks on 'best in league history' on anything, professor.

The fact he had a no hitter going was the purest, dumbest, blindest luck I've seen a good while.Can't wait for the usual posts with their forecast of doom soon.
2 hours ago2 hr Not sure why we're hellbent on proving Doyle was a good pickup (he wasn't) by inserting him into every situation possible.
2 hours ago2 hr Better not come in sleep walking against the Mets this weekend. We need to win these home game

Being mad at strikeouts specifically is a complaint that hasn't been relevant for 40 years.Since the break, he has 3 homeruns in 32 games. It's a valid complaint right now, because he's not delivering with homers as of late. It was tolerable pre-ASB because the dude had 23 homers in the first 95 games. Basically a homer every 4 games, rather than one every 11.

2 hours ago2 hr One thing being drowned out by all the retired professional baseball players here is that Trevor Richards has been turned into a pretty solid bullpen piece from a waiver wire nobody.

They didn't even try today.Hold your guns. It’s never over until it’s over. We have the meat of our lineup batting in the bottom of the ninth, with home run potential. If we can hit at least a homer we still have a chance. Forget the small ball, which we are not good at.
