so fucking sick of every bullpen arm on this team. Stop walking batters and start throwing strikes. Fuck you for blowing leads so often. Should have 77 wins by now if not for that horeshit.

It's like they're pitching scared. It's complete bull shit. If you're a fucking power arm coming out of the pen (everyone but fucking Barnette and Claudio) you better come in pumping fucking strikes.

They pitch like pussies when Cheerios is their catcher. I am sick of him and hope he doesn't play after Sep 1.

Agree, but in Kela's defense, he didn't walk Eibner. Joe West decided to influence the outcome by refusing to punch out Eibner on a ball that was all the way in the K zone.

Literally just thought the same. They pitch scared and it's when Cheerios is catching.

After seeing Lucroy behind the plate I'm completely over Chirinos. Problem is we let Wilson and Holiday go.

I have no way to prove it, but they seem to throw so many wasted pitches when he's up there trying to get chases and it sets them up for bad counts.

You call for one waste pitch to set something else up. Not fucking 3-4 an at bat.

So he calls that borderline pitch up and away a strike and the one almost center square a ball? I wish MLB would force his retirement. He always makes the players' list of worst umpires.

That was an absolutely pathetic at-bat by Mazara. We swing at the most unhittable pitches. Other teams just don't swing at the garbage we do. We swing at pitches over our heads and in the dirt. No plate discipline or pitch recognition whatsoever.

If we have any hope of tying this thing up, it's going to have to come via HR I'm afraid.
