Julio's been off tonight, but he's only allowed 1 run through 4. Offense needs to step up.

 

[Chewbaccer]

Really, Nick?

 

[Chewbaccer]

Square one up, fellas. The popups are getting a little old.

We're really letting Vargas own us?? Pathetic

 

[Chewbaccer]

Offense, take a look at yourselves and let yourselves know that you're being owned by a guy with an ERA over 10

This has been one of the more disappointed games of the season. Both of our hits were on soft contact too.

 

[Chewbaccer]

Julio's first pitch is missing to the same spot outside every time.

He found command of his slider for a few starts in a row earlier this season, but he's lost it again.

 

[Chewbaccer]

Nice adjustment, Culberson.

 

[Chewbaccer]

Ender. They just made an error with Julio batting to extend the inning. You HAVE to make them pay there. You can't EVER roll out to second on the first pitch.

 

[Chewbaccer]

It hasn't been pretty, but Julio has pitched an effective game tonight. His offense needs to help him out. He definitely shouldn't be on the hook for the loss.

 

[Chewbaccer]

The Mets took Vargas out?

 

[Chewbaccer]

I'll be happy if we just make solid contact once this inning.

I'll be happy if we just make solid contact once this inning.

Clearly asking too much.

 

[Chewbaccer]

The late comeback wins are exciting for sure, but it's not sustainable. We're eventually gonna have to start hitting in innings 1-6 again.

I don't know what happened in that aspect, but it's frustrating.

We're not even putting up good at bats tonight, and both of our hits were on soft contact, and I don't really remember any ball we've squared up, and we're not striking out much either.

 

[Chewbaccer]

I mean at this point, it would help my feelings if we got a fly out like that. The weak groundouts and popups are beyond frustrating.

 

[Chewbaccer]

I'll take 7 innings of 2 run ball every time. Too bad the offense decided to not even be competitive tonight.

 

[Mistaken4193]

JOHAN!!

 

[Chewbaccer]

Why would you pinch hit a right handed guy making his second MLB AB there?

Preston Tucker is on the bench and is left handed.

 

[Chewbaccer]

Camargo's homer was the first hard hit ball we've hit tonight save a couple grounders to short.

 

[Chewbaccer]

Julio Teheran had our only AB with RISP this game.
