    lol, hit a HR, cut it to a 1-run game. Come to this forum to get the glass half-empty view

    Hope Fister can give 6-7 innings like this. More offense is coming

    If and when this team wins the World Series, there will be complaints if it isn't a sweep.

    Fister has been rock solid as a #5. Take out those 4 ER from the Springer misplay in the lights and his ERA is in the mid-high 3s.

    Yeah, everyone is expecting sweeps if we are going to turn things around. Right now, I want to just focus on taking series.

    Start taking series, build momentum, then the sweeps will come in time. But losing series, splitting series, isn't going to get us anywhere.

    If we can come back and win this game, it'll be a huge lift with Lance coming back as well.

    Really happy with Fisters outing so far. Many pitchers could have easily thrown a fit over the lack of offensive production given the chances, but he's kept us in a great spot to come back and take this ball game.

    We need Fister to hold it at 2 runs into the seventh.

    I'm at the game. You'll be happy to know Gomez is getting loud boos.

    At least the 4-7 got him to throw 20 pitches that inning. Probably the best we could have hoped for.

    Can't believe we gave up Phillips + Hader + Santana for this trash.

    Trade is done. Made sense at the time--I definitely didn't mind.

    At this point, I'm just hopeful he can hit a streak and build up some amount of value before the deadline this year. Maybe there will be some interest in him as a rental down the stretch if so

    Sure... but we've lost the majority of the cash in trades.

    Tucker is terrible too. Honestly, there are four good hitters on this team.
