    Could see that coming. The kid has an electric arm but he's been all over the place. Major league hitters will make you pay eventually.

    I usually just follow online in times like this, but even I know that's a waste. This 3 run deficit in the 2nd inning is insurmountable, don't even need to follow it online anymore.

    In the last month at home...3 game sweep by the Rangers, 4 game sweep by the Mariners, and more than likely a 4 game sweep by the Angels. How can anyone possibly think that this team can win this division, let alone make a deep playoff run?

    Those are some garbage at bats. Just staring at meatballs over the plate and flailing away at junk two feet out of the zone.

    Crowds continue to be good in spite of the bad product at home. The championship has probably secured big crowds at home for a good while but this is a bad product at home for the most part for the home crowd.

    There just had to be two runners on for that.

    Will the Stros avoid the sweep ?!?

    Split the damn series.

    James starting to settle in. And now Marwin Gonzalez is taking advantage of everything! Finally have something going offensively!

    At least McCann showed some power. Glad we're on the board. Hopefully we do get some McCannonballs this month later.

    This team is so Jekyll and Hyde.

    Too inconsistent and blowing major opportunities to build upon the division. Ugh, its so frustrating.

    Would be interesting to know how our One-Two Run Totals compare.

    We seem notorious this season, especially early.

    The offense mostly seems Feast or Famine.

    Correa is just bamboozled up there.

    Root for the A's to beat the Mariners, because it's wild card or nothing from here on out.

    So, how many thousands of dollars have you already bet with Vegas on this prediction ?

    Post the receipts. Thanks in advance.

    That’s undeniable. You don’t have this many starting pitchers struggling to get to 15 wins despite being healthy all year and having 3.00 ish or better eras unless the offense is struggling.

    Run distribution matters. Run differential is not doing much for us.

    Difficult to put into words how ass Springer has been. Automatic out at this point.
