So with 2-2 count, Julio guesses slider down and away for ball 3. Then the next pitch is the same pitch (but more down and away), but he swings.

Is the guessing game with 2 strikes the best we've got? Just hoping a fastball crashes into the bat?

Julio will never get a strike with 2 of them. Pitcher would rather walk him but he hates walks. Must be allergic. Same plan against him and he continues to fall for it. Such a dumbass

Absolutely right 240 250 hitter at best. He is a Mitch haniger type just with more speed. Wait my bad don't wanna treat Haniger like that he takes his pitches. Um more like idk. Julio is just bad and needs day off tomorrow. Raley and Canzone can start. Julio will not be missed at all.

Yay good to see our pen continue to let them add on. So no winning streak. Team will not get back to 500 until when and if this offense can click. Must be nice to keep hitting homers wonder what's that like!

He does. So great to see our hitting coach help him out with his swing. They are doing a great job. Need to find a hitting guru to help this offense badly!

Our bullpen gives up the long ball way too much especially Voth. Welp offense had one inning ruined by one fucking player. Just how this season is gonna go. Not liking Castillo against another one of thier aces having a dominate start. Castillo has to be Ace form tomorrow. Can't afford another loss!

This kinda offense has one good inning a game. Wasted tonight's by solid defense. They won't add on they rarely score in multiple innings they are just trash and I just don't see them getting any better until coaching chances some kinds approach. Must be nice to get paid as a coach when your offense shows absolutely nothing. Basic single happy team. No power no gap power tons of strikeouts. Winning formula. Back to 3 under and offense still in shambles.

I work a job making minimum wage. I make a mistake I get fired or written up. These guys are supposedly major league hitters getting paid millions. They go so long without producing much of anything and get no punishment. They don't even have to try. Don't have a manager or owner who gives a shit so best job ever. Get paid a ton for nothing. I want that job.

I'm telling you... the first inning of the first game set the tone for this bullshit.

That double play Garver hit into killed them.

Scott should tell every hitter that if their batting average isn't above .220 by May 1, they will be optioned for their counterpart in AAA for a full week.

Yea this offense continues to be ice cold. Hitting coaches deserve a raise. Extend them Dipshito. Best offense in the league and only getting better. U know your offense is bad when your leadoff hitter ends it on a strikeout. So another game nothing positive from the offense. Another solid start from the starting pitcher. Hopefully Castillo and Kirby follow. Time to celebrate. Another pathetic excuse of an offense. Good teams fix this issue. It's time to admit this team is not good. Does not have good coaching or an owner. They are an embarrassment.
