I know this is like a broken record, but when you have 3 guys who are 0-6 with 5 Ks… and look even worse than that… it makes scoring almost completely reliant on homeruns. Marwin/Franchy back-to-back makes an extended rally impossible. But the PLAN!

It's pretty telling that we're only down 2 runs, have 4 more innings to climb back, but most of us are not hopeful.
Watching Robles walk Margot brings unpleasant thoughts...

That's absolutely freaking awful. Should be released after this game.

WTF are these intentional walks?

Let me get this straight, in what feels like a must-win game, the answer was Hansel Robles in a moderate stress situation? Really, Cora?

This must've been what it was like to be a Phillies fan last year and watch their shiny new acquisition, Workman, pitch.

Btw Houck should be McHugh Too bad the Sox didnt bring back McHugh. I get why, but he really could have helped the Sox when healthy.

Is there a 2022 MLB draft thread? I think we’ll pick 19th. 42nd since Mets didn’t sign Rocker and estimat about 56. Pitching, pitching and more pitching

It's about time baseball drops all of the balk infractions that don't legitimately affect the running game. There are 13 ways in which a pitcher can balk, and no one other than some umpires can name all of them. Not every umpire in the majors calls the same balks. Hardly anyone steals bases anymore, so the deceiving the baserunner is dubious.

I dont understand how Bloom thinks Robles helps the team unless he's jacked about the 500k thrown in.

How does Tampa get all these anonymous, unspellable random pitchers who shut us down, and we end up with a Robles and a Davis and... They really know how to shop in the bargain shops
