We just can't seem to win.  Kick in the balls daily.  

[Ding Dong Johnson]

What if that's what Tommy told him to do and he executed it perfectly?

Then I would be disappointed.

[GoCubsGo1978]

Same crap, different day.  When are things going to change.  Bats still struggling, especially when runners on base.  The bullpen, no need to say more.  

[LBiittner]

I said smily didn't pass the smell test

The bat struggles have turned from "no one getting on base" to "getting on base acceptable amounts but not scoring very many"

[WhyCantWeWin]

I was about to lose my mind 

[Dfan25]

This team stinks .No defense , bad base running , garbage bullpen .  . Oh Jed  

[LBiittner]

How many wins has counsell been worth? 

[LBiittner]

[UMFan83]

The only batted ball luck we get is bad batted ball luck

+3.

28-29 vs 25-32 at the same stage in David’s final year.

if you think it was stupid for hoyer to give smyly two years, remember, he also gave  mancini two years. 

[UMFan83]

lmao Reds are 1-11 in one run games and they gonna just mow us down for the final 9 outs.  

Of course they'll probably tack on 2-3 more runs so it wont be a 1 run game.

[JHBulls]

JD with the underrated titleist Seinfeld reference with Jason Alexander in the house. That guy is just switched on.  😂 

[JHBulls]

This current team might suck but at least they’ve brought back the Hendricks/Rizzo pickoff move today. So that’s nice. 

[Soul]

Same horsefeathers?

 

Okie.

[JHBulls]

A timely home run right here please.

You do realize Dansby Swanson is up right?

Edit: or was up

[Outshined_One]

Did Dansby do something to piss off the MonStars?

[WhyCantWeWin]

Nice hustle from Swanson there, bro really doesn’t care 

[Soul]

85 MPH meatball right down the middle.  Swanson first pitch swinging.  Couldn't ask for a better setup.

 

Fouls it off. 

 

Then lollipops it down the line.

 

Dude needs to grab some bench.

 

[JBears79]

Swanson is just absolutely lost.

[Outshined_One]

For the 9th, I'll go with PCA double, Gomes three pitch K, Tauchman BB, PCA picked off, Seiya single, and Tauchman thrown out at home on a bad send to end it.
