    Solos are decent. Do more with runners.

    Props to Tuve though. Old guy is still very playable.

    Apparently they only hit HRs when there’s no runner on base

    I’m pretty tired of seeing Correa ground out.

    Honestly I'd prefer Lambert starting of Weiss at this point. He had a solid game, some tough breaks, and that inning where he hit the first two guys really hurt him, but he looked decent.

    We have allowed the leadoff hitter to reach 5 of 6 innings. Lucky to be down only 1

    best chance to score runs was bases loaded with 1 out

    now watch them get shutout the rest of the game

    Really impressive outing from Lambert. They could have something.

    Loper looked like he was pulling up lame on that grounder. Brice has replaced him

    He was leading the majors in ABs with runners on and bases loaded -- but only 9 RBIs. He needs to be much better.

    Carlos, Diaz, and Parades are our strugglers. Only one of them is a virtual lock for 115 OPS+. TWO would be much better, and it won't be Diaz. Hope this isn't one of Correa's replacement-level seasons. He's been sporadic.
