What’s the record for unearned runs in a month?

That’ll lose you a ball game right there.

I really don't want to turn off the home opener this early, but don't know if I have the stomach to watch this.
This is the stuff Cora said would not happen this year.

the pitchers haven't escaped many of the defensively-caused jams either.

It really is remarkable how much the defense has died since Story

Our pitchers arms will eventually fall off throwing this many extra pitches

Trickle down effect. Errors lead to wasted pitches meaning short starts - short starts burn the bullpen arms. The margin of error on this team is paper thin. Not sure what the answer is, but....

Duran's been good defensively this year too. But it seems that the team may have a bunch of ok or even good defenders who are also strangely prone to making out of nowhere mistakes.

They struggle more with routine plays

Duran lost it crossing into the shadows. Still gotta catch it but I think it's a little tougher than you might expect. That will do some damage to his dWAR.

Bello's stuff has been really good. Really just the second inning loss of command and then the shoddy defense. He hopefully comes out for the 6th.

One of those days where the offense looks like they have no intention of doing any damage

Did DOB just say that Corbin Burnes pitched for AZ last year???

Did DOB just say that Corbin Burnes pitched for AZ last year??? I actually don't pay attention to anything DOB - or Millar - says. Ugh.

This is the kind of stuff Bello has to eliminate. Can't come out and just throw four balls in a row to start the inning.

Hamilton showed enough arm strength there

Joely inheriting a runner. Surely can’t go wrong

Nice play by Valdez and Hamilton - but...now Valdez hurt? Looks like we just can't have nice things today.
Bello was pretty good - defense let him down. He has to eliminate those gaps in concentration.
But - Joely time? What could go wrong?

Just what I was thinking and just did....turned it off ... Watching it happen was like having an old scab picked off and having the bleeding start all over...psychological this time.

Joely did OK (always a shock to me). Shadows are rough - hope our offense can get a few.
