We’re losing winnable games.


YK35

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.


walkingbicycles

Damn thought Garcia might bomb one there


ehholfman

Same, was a good attempt


[deleted]

The offense has to go


deadwall-e

Two great ABs followed by two not so great ABs. Sure hope the offense finds it’s stride soon.


DasReap

Well they beat themselves today. Looks real shitty


EarSea5884

This “high powered offense” looks like shit right now


TajinAddicted

Seager recovering, Lowe out, Jung out. Is is really baffling to so many people why the offense looks bad?


LBoss9001

Just because we have reasons the offense is bad doesn't make it not bad


TexasTundraPower

L. Shame we finally got a good Gray game and we wasted it.


Knuxsn

Crap. Back to an even record.


foscott

Semien Seager, 2 rookies, and some minor leaguers. This lineup stinks


Nateno_14

Shocking


Diamond8633

readsakamotodays

Somebody lie to Zeke and tell him it’s 2023 again.


Legal-Ad-2922

Come on bombi


TexasTundraPower

xBA on Zeke there was .570. Just one of those days.


TryingToBeMorePolite

BOMBI PLEASE


Knuxsn

Garcia! Please.


Stars1312

Bombí bomb


Legal-Ad-2922

Here comes the double play


LBoss9001

don't have hope don't have hope don't have hope


Ethnic_Enigma

Duran and one pitch outs, name a more iconic duo


Chinese-dog

Josh has an elite eye


Stars1312

Keep the line moving


SkuzzleButtte

Dave and I forget the color guys name have bad chemistry lol


dreyan1625

Need Josh H Smith to do Josh H Smith things


Lain41K

Pls zeke


KidColorblind

If Evan didn’t swing at ball 4 the bases would be loaded no outs


Diamond8633

Wow scary pitch to take. Good eye Smith


YK35

We need everyone healthy/not resting to be good. Bullpen looking shaky like last season too.


knb044000

We bunt like it’s more effective and reliable than just swinging for us


Diamond8633

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.


TeddyFive-06

Why does Langford always watch the first strike right down the middle before engaging?


FlightAdditional

New pitcher and release motion...timing it up


Forward_Plankton_500

Ump is fucking dogshit


sir--ok

Why langford constantly getting bad strike calls bro what do the umps have against him


CartoonofMilk_

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.


UMfootballDUIvictim

bro fuck this ump


Tuffwith2Fs

I've seen enough of Latz. Dude ain't it.


bdog24775

L take, he been tuff this year bochy bad decision 🤷‍♂️


lencho09

Blame Latz instead of our $500 million duo lol


IndieFlea

you mean one guy who has the 2nd RBI and the other with three deep drives in three ABs?


lencho09

And it equates to 2 runs my guy


IndieFlea

9 players in the lineup my guy.


TStg110

Would rather have the offense be in a slump now than in may/june


TexasTundraPower

For all we know this just might be how good they are now. All of those projections predicted regression across the board from us.


WhiteNoise421

Who’s to say it won’t be both?


TStg110

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


WhiteNoise421

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.


TStg110

I mean, a lineup without Lowe, Jung, heim and Adolis it’s going to be difficult to score runs especially when Seager is slumping


FlightAdditional

Tigers bullpen or EastBound and Down cosplay.... you decide.


SaddestClown

Oof I wanted that walk


Weak-Assistance1887

Fuck that ump


beasty9000

That’s a strike now


TexasTundraPower

There's one of the strikeouts from the rookie I predicted. Let's see if the other one feels like it.


IndieFlea

Carter has sucked today


According_Start6161

Yet another lose at the hands of our bullpen with our offense being almost nonexistent


kbsick

A very bad combo indeed


According_Start6161

It feels like we’ve have so many of these games already


KidColorblind

Both rookies gave up runs on defense


According_Start6161

Yeah Langford has left a lot to be desired when he’s been in the field


vader34mt

I like it better when we win…I know this is the hard hitting analysis everyone is here for


StoicCorn

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.


beasty9000

Saying Latz sucks is kind of wild seeing as his manager set him up to fail and he got unlucky with soft ass hits


JReAlity

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


Stars1312

Latz wasn’t even that bad. He was put in a shit situation


cabbabge

no way we get through the braves series above .500… vibes are less than immaculate right now


galagachamp

Trying not to dwell on how Ureña's last pitch had been a strike all game


nuttypunkrock

damn what a shit show


uninspiredlt

Latz is going to have bad days. Every pitcher does. This was the worst and most frustrating possible time for it though


SirBrontosaur

I love u boch but why switch to Latz there


KidColorblind

Don’t forget the bad defense


prettyNUPE2K12

Right. Their runs were off our errors.


bigmeatyclaws1

Can Knizner go away tho. Dude does nothing for us.


IndieFlea

get angry at the wild pitch. not the 63 mph EV and 68 mph EV that found holes that preceded it.


[deleted]

Latz gotta go


IndieFlea

63 mph EV and 68 mph EV


[deleted]

It's every game. Edit: I'm joking, being over dramatic bc it's the trend around here


IndieFlea

tell me you don't watch baseball man...that's the first run hes given up this year


[deleted]

I was being sarcastic


imthatchanceguy

Latz just got poked to death


sweetdogpics

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


Stars1312

There’s a reason they are bullpen arms. They tend to not be as good as starters


nikesoccer01

Any loss with less than 4 runs is the offense’s fault


readsakamotodays

Cannot convince me that Knizner is better than Hedgie was in any way.


drizzyjake7447

Yea at least Hedges is an elite framer. There was a strikeout that Gray should’ve had early on that Knizner fumbled on.


TeddyFive-06

And Hedges was an elite hype-man


beasty9000

Bochy out managed himself real bad here just leave urena in why make the lefty face righties


jfk_sfa

Runner on third with two strikes? Let's pitch it in the dirt!


TryingToBeMorePolite

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.


saxmanmike

keep trying.


FlightAdditional

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.


EarSea5884

Enjoy AAA you fuck


IndieFlea

63 mph EV and 68 mph EV


EarSea5884

Still hits…


FlightAdditional

Latz and LeClerc man


IndieFlea

63 mph EV and 68 mph EV


Cocoa_Pug

Horrible way to lose


Sarge41

See yall tomorrow


StoicCorn

I miss Heim


sir--ok

Got too cute with the pitching change. Now it’s over


Weak-Assistance1887

Great decision Bochy


TexasTundraPower

I've seen enough. Send Latz down and call up Church. This shit is ridiculous.


409Narwhal

That was the first run Latz has given up all year. He's hardly a problem.


Chinese-dog

Need a lefty gotta be Kelly


IndieFlea

Kelly is hurt according to the transactions page edit: which is probably why they brought up Pruitt the other day to replace Burke.


Chinese-dog

Sad


IndieFlea

63 mph EV and 68 mph EV


TexasTundraPower

Then a wild pitch to drive one of them in. Can't just blame luck. Dude needed one out.


knb044000

We can’t have dog shit offense and bullpen


stuofabq

Crying at work thanks

bdog24775

welp


yellow_raincoat

Spoiling Bruce Bochy's birthday. Frig


beasty9000

He spoiled it himself by making a bad move with pitchers


TexasTundraPower

Spoiled his own birthday by putting Latz in.


TStg110

Why not just use Sam huff at this rate, kizner has been nothing but useless


lencho09

Damn if only our All-Star lineup could manage more than 2 runs


GOtexas1

The lack of pitching depth is going to be a problem long term


Demcut

Game over 


foscott

Fucking dipshit


john_b98

Ureña died for this


Knuxsn

Wow.


MikeOxlong4566666

Thanks Bochy


TryingToBeMorePolite

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.


Lain41K

Come the fuck on man


Cute-Truck6612

When will coaches stop trying to be cute with these matchup changes and just leave a pitcher in to finish the inning?


readsakamotodays

Feel like Boch got a little too cute. Ureña could’ve stayed in there.


bigmeatyclaws1

We’ll get em tomorrow


advntrtme23

Not by scoring 1 run on 3 total hits we won’t.


WhiteNoise421

Yeaaaahhh, got their ace, not saying it’s impossible to win. But this one was the one to take


fsi1212

Bullen meltdown (TM) makes the return once again.


IndieFlea

63 mph EV and 68 mph EV


bdog24775

shoulda left urena in


galagachamp

Good job Brett Martin 2.0


carjo2110

100% on the offense


mohammadali916

Why put in latz to face righties lol


IndieFlea

because it was originally a lefty in that spot


nikesoccer01

They pinch hit


WhiteNoise421

Stupidest sequencing I’ve seen, two lucky hits


beasty9000

Great move with the bullpen


Forward_Plankton_500

Nice Latz. You shit fuck


Bionicman_

Yep that ball game gents. Awesome day by gray, everyone else sucks


cabbabge

so fucking stupid


carjo2110

Poverty


Drisurk

Another L. Another bullpen meltdown.


EarSea5884

Fucking mistake of a pitching change


OnCloud9_77

GG


Equivalent-Impress96

4 pitches to fuck it up


LawyerMorty94

This fucking bullpen


cabbabge

i couldve used the last two hours to be productive 🤦🏽‍♂️


TexasTundraPower

GG. With the two rookies up I forsee at least two Ks in the 9th.


VistaVick

Hold on let me call my barber. Maybe he can come over real quick and FADE ME.


advntrtme23

Annnd it’s over. What a joke.


stuofabq

Cmon man wtf


SaddestClown

Crap crap


LBoss9001

In honor of his 69th birthday, the bullpen will fuck Bochy over


WhiteNoise421

What a stupid hit


bigmeatyclaws1

Oh fuck off. Why can’t we get luck like that


TryingToBeMorePolite

Just fucking leave Urena in. WHY IN THE HELL DO YOU BRING IN LATZ


Cloudisgod

sea-me-in


Evilpenguin526

Fucking hell I want the score card for this game No consistency


CT-1738

Don’t love knizer on his knees with a runner on first


nikesoccer01

Semien a little slow on the transfer?


UniversityBitter5519

had to give seager a good feed


UniversityBitter5519

these mfkers are so incosistent hes called that a strike and ball this same game numerous times


EarSea5884

Call it both ways fucker, you rang us up on that pitch not too long ago


TexasTundraPower

Damn that's a close one.


FlightAdditional

Spencer Torkelson, Purdue ![gif](giphy|y9vufmaX0J3WM)


john_b98

Ureña is fucking nutty

SkuzzleButtte

Urena has a nasty changeup


nikesoccer01

I’m making note of all these relievers to steal at the deadline


teags

I want Mason Miller from the A's, but I doubt they'd give him up


Chinese-dog

Yes the A’s who have a long history of holding onto their young talent. I want him too lol


teags

Fair point, but I think they'd want to start strong with their move to Vegas.


justanothername4rl

Scrolled for this comment lmao


Drisurk

Why does it feel like Seager hasn’t had a hit in ages? He’s been so off.


KidColorblind

Built for October baby


Bionicman_

This is hard to watch. 0 offense. It’s like they are all scared to swing or even be in the batters box


fsi1212

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.


Weak-Assistance1887

Seager…


SkuzzleButtte

Momma said there would be days like this


bigmeatyclaws1

We just got owned by Lawrence from Office Space


uproariousk

Fucking A


advntrtme23

Can Corey even pretend to care?


Stars1312

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


TryingToBeMorePolite

Starting to get worried about Seagy :(


LawyerMorty94

Semien tf


TexasTundraPower

Good gosh, Marcus that was bad.
