I’m typing this weeks out so I don’t know which of these games I’ll attend, but I definitely want to see Cruz live and if I can catch Skenes I’ll be stoked.

Is this the last game of 25 that they will be over .500?

Probably.

Can’t wait to hear the line of bullshit from Washington after this game. Something like “ Well, they’re professional, they know what to do and they can do it, we just have to wait for them to come around and balls to start dropping. Patience, it will happen”. Blah, blah, blah.

The problem is waiting. The coaches need to earn their money and not just wait for them to hit

You want then to take the AB’s for them?

Address the issues. That does not mean taking the AB’s for them.

How do you know they’re not? They could be stressing like crazy trying to fix these guys.

I doubt it. We wouldn’t see the swings we are seeing if the underlying issue were being addressed… unless you think all the hitters are intentionally ignoring the coaches… which is unlikely.

this is where the Edwards appearance matters. Otherwise we’ve got the tying run up now

Edwards kinda sucks.

yes, solid pickup. Draft 20 pitchers, fill your big league roster with castoffs

I know we have a bunch of former major league coaches in here who can tell me, but i honestly don’t know how to fix the offense.
Every hitter being this bad at the same time is mind boggling

Congratulations you win the game thread for this evening

The focus needs to be on simplifying things. Contact the ball. Then drive through it. Just focus on singles. The old Charlie Lau approach. Swinging for the fences is the problem.

Absolutely true.

I think it would be more entertaining if they pulled fans out of the stands. Catch a foul ball and you can pinch hit.

Sellouts nightly and per caps thru the roof. Arte’s wet dream.

There might as well be no fans in the stands. This crowd is mortuary dead.
I have spoken a few times before about the difference between weekend crowds and week night crowds. It is dramatic. And I think it impacts the team.
The week nights are DEAD. The only time they are not is if we play the Dodgers, Yankees or Red Sox.
