Their BP is garbage. Keep it in striking distance.

All you have to do is not pitch to him.
I never had friends later on like the ones I had when I was twelve. Jesus, does anyone?

Just can't let Vlad beat you there. That's horrible.

So freaking stupid. Dumb strategy. Their lineup is trash. Attack everyone else, pitch around Vlad.

You just can't let Guerrero beat you with nothing else in that lineup. Just stupid.

Yeah, you can get Guerrero out if you're pitching him in, but that was a freakin meatball near the middle of the plate.

Agree with the sentiment that it's pretty freakin stupid to pitch to Guerrero in that situation though.

Kremer's bad nights would be a lot easier to stomach if we'd added a solid SP instead of Rogers to the rotation. Your 5th starter is gonna get beat fairly often. Just need to have only one of those guys. Still can't believe Elias gave up what he did to get Rogers who I think is even worse. Haven't yet tried not to harp on that bad choice, but it's gonna get real annoying getting burnt and bringing it up for the next couple months. So frustrating.

You can't put around him with no outs and a runner on first. The key is get the guy ahead of him.

Really need Adley to get out of his funk. Thought he was starting to emerge a bit, but really tough ABs tonight.

They haven't had many late comeback victories, if any this season. Too many games where they fall behind and just roll over as an offense. Let's change that tonight and make a furious comeback.

Exactly what you can't do. Walk a guy and throw a meatball to Vlad. Totally inexcusable by Kremer. It was like he was asking for it.

I gotta know what slash line O's pitching has given up to the bottom third of lineups over the past month.

I can't remember the exact stat but you're right. Very few comeback wins this year and a complete contrast to last year.
