So are we willing to just say that losing skid was bad luck from the bats yet?

I know SSH has been running around using that sarcastically for a while, but c’mon.

While i'm not convinced the offense is good

i do think that it was uncharacteristically awful during that stretch in part because of bad luck. i think we have a slightly above average offense, but as long as we continue to have really good pitching, that should be good enough

well at least it might not be too much to say

that they both have a good shot at playing above average defense. not that that would make up the missing .250 points of OPS between them.

disappointed in that 3-2 fastball to walk him

i thought at that point he ought’ve thrown his best pitch. That should be his curve. Also, I doubt he was trying to miss with that fastball.

So yes, guilt is creeping.

Guess Asshole Ozzie won’t take a pitcher out till he reaches 100 pitches, or gives up 10 hits.

Gob: And now you love the ten commandments. And yet you’re the one who so conveniently forgot “Thou shalt protect thy father and honor no one above him unless it be-ith me, thy sweet Lord.”

Michael: I’m not sure that one made it down the mountain, Gob.

clutch crede can only come out in the 7th or later with the conclusion of the game in the balance. otherwise, he stays in his little cage.

that is true. clearly games never get decided in the first 6 innings.
