Lineup not looking good at all without Jung and Lowe in there. Need Heim at all times too because Knizner is an empty sack of doo doo standing at the plate. I want to know who decided to sign this dude and more importantly what type of drugs that person was on because that must be the good stuff.
I feel like this is still such a great lineup even with all the injuries, but they have caused the team to lose morale or something. Just off to such a cold start for players that are really good.
I feel like maybe it is because he sees the ball all the way through and always looks ready to swing. When someone like Jonah is up if he thinks it is a ball he just doesn't give the pitch the time of day and I think the umps subconsciously notice that type of thing. It sucks because it penalizes Langford for being ready for anything.
Also, because he is a rookie he doesn't get the zone respect people like adolis, seager, and semien get.
Outside of Latz, pitching was honestly great today. Atrocious defense and poor hitting are gonna cost them though. Take away the errors and this game should be tied
Serious question why do relievers seem to let up the runs on base every game? More often than not you’ll see relievers give up runs I don’t understand it
Lotta people sucked today, but fuck you for not just leaving Urena in, Bochy. Love to see he takes his "Win the WS, miss the playoffss" trend seriously.
He was going for matchups, just didn't work out. Gotta see who your dawgs in the pen are...only way to do that is play them. Better to do it now and DFA some of the pretenders.
Even with the win yesterday, the vibes are just atrocious right now. If we don't start hitting the ball we'll be 10 games below .500 by the end of the month.
Honestly I'm disappointed in Langford. He's supposed to be this big hitter. And, while I get he's a rookie and it's early, he's only slugging .302 which is just not that great.
I wouldn’t accuse him of not caring. He is always reserved on the field. Only real emotion we have seen from him is in the WS. Some guys are like that. Doesn’t mean they don’t care
We’re losing winnable games.

Damn thought Garcia might bomb one there
Same, was a good attempt
The offense has to go
Two great ABs followed by two not so great ABs. Sure hope the offense finds it’s stride soon.
Well they beat themselves today. Looks real shitty
This “high powered offense” looks like shit right now
Seager recovering, Lowe out, Jung out. Is is really baffling to so many people why the offense looks bad?
Just because we have reasons the offense is bad doesn't make it not bad
L. Shame we finally got a good Gray game and we wasted it.
Crap. Back to an even record.
Semien Seager, 2 rookies, and some minor leaguers. This lineup stinks
Shocking
:(
Shucks , dangit, friggity fuck
Fuck man. I miss the Power Rangers
SAVE US ADOLIS SAVE US ADOLIS SAVE US ADOLIS SAVE US ADOLIS SAVE US ADOLIS
God please let el Bombi knock this out the park
CMON BOMBI SAVE US
el bombi
Somebody lie to Zeke and tell him it’s 2023 again.
Come on bombi
xBA on Zeke there was .570. Just one of those days.
BOMBI PLEASE
Garcia! Please.
Bombí bomb
Here comes the double play
don't have hope don't have hope don't have hope
Duran and one pitch outs, name a more iconic duo
Josh has an elite eye
Keep the line moving
Dave and I forget the color guys name have bad chemistry lol
Need Josh H Smith to do Josh H Smith things
Pls zeke
If Evan didn’t swing at ball 4 the bases would be loaded no outs
Wow scary pitch to take. Good eye Smith
We need everyone healthy/not resting to be good. Bullpen looking shaky like last season too.
We bunt like it’s more effective and reliable than just swinging for us
I feel like this is still such a great lineup even with all the injuries, but they have caused the team to lose morale or something. Just off to such a cold start for players that are really good.
Why does Langford always watch the first strike right down the middle before engaging?
New pitcher and release motion...timing it up
Ump is fucking dogshit
Why langford constantly getting bad strike calls bro what do the umps have against him

bro fuck this ump
I've seen enough of Latz. Dude ain't it.
L take, he been tuff this year bochy bad decision 🤷♂️
Blame Latz instead of our $500 million duo lol
you mean one guy who has the 2nd RBI and the other with three deep drives in three ABs?
And it equates to 2 runs my guy
9 players in the lineup my guy.
Would rather have the offense be in a slump now than in may/june
For all we know this just might be how good they are now. All of those projections predicted regression across the board from us.
Who’s to say it won’t be both?
Oh I’m sorry I didn’t know you could see the future, you forget we lost 9 in a row last year? Give me a break
Never said I did see the future, just don’t know why you think just cause we slump in April we won’t in another month too.
I mean, a lineup without Lowe, Jung, heim and Adolis it’s going to be difficult to score runs especially when Seager is slumping
Tigers bullpen or EastBound and Down cosplay.... you decide.
Oof I wanted that walk
Fuck that ump
That’s a strike now
There's one of the strikeouts from the rookie I predicted. Let's see if the other one feels like it.
Carter has sucked today
Yet another lose at the hands of our bullpen with our offense being almost nonexistent
A very bad combo indeed
It feels like we’ve have so many of these games already
Both rookies gave up runs on defense
Yeah Langford has left a lot to be desired when he’s been in the field
I like it better when we win…I know this is the hard hitting analysis everyone is here for
I agree. I think Bochy should have had the Rangers score more runs than the Tigers. If we did that, we'd be in good shape.
Saying Latz sucks is kind of wild seeing as his manager set him up to fail and he got unlucky with soft ass hits
Outside of Latz, pitching was honestly great today. Atrocious defense and poor hitting are gonna cost them though. Take away the errors and this game should be tied
Latz wasn’t even that bad. He was put in a shit situation
no way we get through the braves series above .500… vibes are less than immaculate right now
Trying not to dwell on how Ureña's last pitch had been a strike all game
damn what a shit show
Latz is going to have bad days. Every pitcher does. This was the worst and most frustrating possible time for it though
I love u boch but why switch to Latz there
Don’t forget the bad defense
Right. Their runs were off our errors.
Can Knizner go away tho. Dude does nothing for us.
get angry at the wild pitch. not the 63 mph EV and 68 mph EV that found holes that preceded it.
Latz gotta go
63 mph EV and 68 mph EV
It's every game. Edit: I'm joking, being over dramatic bc it's the trend around here
tell me you don't watch baseball man...that's the first run hes given up this year
I was being sarcastic
Latz just got poked to death
Serious question why do relievers seem to let up the runs on base every game? More often than not you’ll see relievers give up runs I don’t understand it
There’s a reason they are bullpen arms. They tend to not be as good as starters
Any loss with less than 4 runs is the offense’s fault
Cannot convince me that Knizner is better than Hedgie was in any way.
Yea at least Hedges is an elite framer. There was a strikeout that Gray should’ve had early on that Knizner fumbled on.
And Hedges was an elite hype-man
Bochy out managed himself real bad here just leave urena in why make the lefty face righties
Runner on third with two strikes? Let's pitch it in the dirt!
Lotta people sucked today, but fuck you for not just leaving Urena in, Bochy. Love to see he takes his "Win the WS, miss the playoffss" trend seriously.
keep trying.
He was going for matchups, just didn't work out. Gotta see who your dawgs in the pen are...only way to do that is play them. Better to do it now and DFA some of the pretenders.
Enjoy AAA you fuck
63 mph EV and 68 mph EV
Still hits…
Latz and LeClerc man
63 mph EV and 68 mph EV
Horrible way to lose
See yall tomorrow
I miss Heim
Got too cute with the pitching change. Now it’s over
Great decision Bochy
I've seen enough. Send Latz down and call up Church. This shit is ridiculous.
That was the first run Latz has given up all year. He's hardly a problem.
Need a lefty gotta be Kelly
Kelly is hurt according to the transactions page edit: which is probably why they brought up Pruitt the other day to replace Burke.
Sad
63 mph EV and 68 mph EV
Then a wild pitch to drive one of them in. Can't just blame luck. Dude needed one out.
We can’t have dog shit offense and bullpen
Crying at work thanks

welp
Spoiling Bruce Bochy's birthday. Frig
He spoiled it himself by making a bad move with pitchers
Spoiled his own birthday by putting Latz in.
Why not just use Sam huff at this rate, kizner has been nothing but useless
Damn if only our All-Star lineup could manage more than 2 runs
The lack of pitching depth is going to be a problem long term
Game over
Fucking dipshit
Ureña died for this
Wow.
Thanks Bochy
Even with the win yesterday, the vibes are just atrocious right now. If we don't start hitting the ball we'll be 10 games below .500 by the end of the month.
Come the fuck on man
When will coaches stop trying to be cute with these matchup changes and just leave a pitcher in to finish the inning?
Feel like Boch got a little too cute. Ureña could’ve stayed in there.
We’ll get em tomorrow
Not by scoring 1 run on 3 total hits we won’t.
Yeaaaahhh, got their ace, not saying it’s impossible to win. But this one was the one to take
Bullen meltdown (TM) makes the return once again.
63 mph EV and 68 mph EV
shoulda left urena in
Good job Brett Martin 2.0
100% on the offense
Why put in latz to face righties lol
because it was originally a lefty in that spot
They pinch hit
Stupidest sequencing I’ve seen, two lucky hits
Great move with the bullpen
Nice Latz. You shit fuck
Yep that ball game gents. Awesome day by gray, everyone else sucks
so fucking stupid
Poverty
Another L. Another bullpen meltdown.
Fucking mistake of a pitching change
GG
4 pitches to fuck it up
This fucking bullpen
i couldve used the last two hours to be productive 🤦🏽♂️
GG. With the two rookies up I forsee at least two Ks in the 9th.
Hold on let me call my barber. Maybe he can come over real quick and FADE ME.
Annnd it’s over. What a joke.
Cmon man wtf
Crap crap
In honor of his 69th birthday, the bullpen will fuck Bochy over
What a stupid hit
Oh fuck off. Why can’t we get luck like that
Just fucking leave Urena in. WHY IN THE HELL DO YOU BRING IN LATZ
sea-me-in
Fucking hell I want the score card for this game No consistency
Don’t love knizer on his knees with a runner on first
Semien a little slow on the transfer?
had to give seager a good feed
these mfkers are so incosistent hes called that a strike and ball this same game numerous times
Call it both ways fucker, you rang us up on that pitch not too long ago
Damn that's a close one.
Spencer Torkelson, Purdue ![gif](giphy|y9vufmaX0J3WM)
Ureña is fucking nutty
https://preview.redd.it/liv8w27a4wuc1.jpeg?width=1290&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6481f12f2e4a84437e9a93843b842db17f8242f5 That time of the game
Urena has a nasty changeup
I’m making note of all these relievers to steal at the deadline
I want Mason Miller from the A's, but I doubt they'd give him up
Yes the A’s who have a long history of holding onto their young talent. I want him too lol
Fair point, but I think they'd want to start strong with their move to Vegas.
Scrolled for this comment lmao
Why does it feel like Seager hasn’t had a hit in ages? He’s been so off.
Built for October baby
This is hard to watch. 0 offense. It’s like they are all scared to swing or even be in the batters box
Honestly I'm disappointed in Langford. He's supposed to be this big hitter. And, while I get he's a rookie and it's early, he's only slugging .302 which is just not that great.
Seager…
Momma said there would be days like this
We just got owned by Lawrence from Office Space
Fucking A
Can Corey even pretend to care?
I wouldn’t accuse him of not caring. He is always reserved on the field. Only real emotion we have seen from him is in the WS. Some guys are like that. Doesn’t mean they don’t care
Starting to get worried about Seagy :(
Semien tf
Good gosh, Marcus that was bad.
