    Below average hitters in clutch situations aren’t ideal.

    Making contact with the ball seems impossible right now

    Sometimes the defense bails him out. Please defense, be on the high alert and potentially steal some hits.

    Disappointing, but if Pressly and Hader go scoreless.....

    Cabbage is awful. Absolutely awful. This team cannot win with this lineup

    We get down 0-2 every at bat. Coaching/ gameplan issue?

    What's the point of Aledmys Diaz on this roster?

    Can we please just call up Melton or Dezenzo and replace Cabbage and A. Diaz? They're all trash anyways.

    To strike out 40% of the time and show off his strong arm.

    The condition of the outfield offensively outside of Yordan to me is the biggest issue on this roster.

    The drop off after Diaz is sad. No way Pena and Meyers should be 5 and 6, heck even 6-7 with Tucker healthy.

    Honestly, I'll rather call up fcking Matthews right now than watch anymore of Cabbage at bats.
