Guys seriously what was ozzie plan before this season. if your lookin for big boppers come in and do it your wrong. Ozzie told ya we would win close games with pitching defense and timely hitting. I guess no one notice that.

 

 

The problem is that we're not getting ANY hitting lately aside from Pods and Gooch. The offense is in a world of hurt lately.

Rangers are hitting McCarthy pretty hard. They saw him twice in spring training, so they have an idea what to expect.

 

Either way, he can be perfect from here on in. If the offense doesn't do something, it won't matter.

I don't think anybody is looking for homeruns left and right. Some of us just wish that the "timely hitting" was a little more...um...timely.

 

I couldn't be more satisfied with our 33-15 record. But the hitting has to improve if we want to have continued success. It can't be ALL pitching.

what are you gonna do about it guys? all they can do is hit out of it. So lets see were winning with timely hitting meaning clutch to me so as long we get the "W" fine with me

Timely hitting=failing not once but twice to get a runner home from 3rd with less than 2 outs?

Timely hitting=not scoring with 2 on and 1 out

 

?

2nd walk for McCarthy.

 

McCarthy is trying to be a little too fine, he's missing his spots. He just needs to be aggressive and go inside a little more, and let things fall where they may.

It's not just that we're not scoring runs. It's also the fact that our players are having terrible ABs, and they're not hitting the ball very hard.

Nice jump JD, 2 down

With even a decent offense, we'd probably have about 10 more wins. Every single win counds when we still have the Twins on our asses. They won't go away, I guarantee it. How many times in the past have we thought we had the Twins beat? Too many. We just don't want to accept a s***ty ass offense like this.

We need more widger i believe.

good thing to see BMAC's pitch count twice that of Young's

Well that defines high fly ball.

 

Nice inning again Brandon

 

HOW ABOUT THE f***ING OFFENSE PICKS THE KID UP?

Now lets score some runs

I can see why he is pitching around guys. He is getting hit HARD.

We could use a little more cowbell.

Lisa Dergan in the crowd.

McCarthy out of this inning, he's at 75 pitches. If he goes 6 full, that should be it for him tonite.

 

Let's face it, he is the 5th starter as we speak. His job is to keep the team in the game, he's doing that.

 

This is where Frank Thomas will help, he'll see a lot of pitches and hopefully walk a lot. Guys pitch differently when runners are on base, it opens up a few holes too. The offense is right in between being too aggressive and being too patient.

Let's go offense. I can't watch the rest of the game. I just have to hope. Have fun, guys.

I love how rowand swings at balls off the plate constantly. I expecially love it when he swings at ball four every game.

Willie swung at a pitch that was arguably ball four. Where are you jabroni?

Willie can't get the ball out of the infield. I remember all those grounders to the right side from last season now.

2 up 2 down in the 5th

 

This is getting so f***ing ridiculous god damnit

I love how both Ozuna and Harris have fake/bunted themselves into 2 strike counts. Yeah, that's productive.

Pablo has hit the ball out of the infield less than willie has this year.
