Does Rock not know that a hamstring can keep you out for weeks? 

He also suggested that Murphy has been making good in game decisions

It may be time for him to step aside

At least Uecker is entertaining 

[RobertCrawley]

Robots.

[Bulldogboy]

Contreras makes it look easy.

[yfinn6]

Lifeless tonight. 

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

Just can't get the big hit.

Ok, I'm going to defend Rock. Yes, he sometimes talks up the Brewers to a fault, but I want a little bit of a homer calling games. He's with us.

Also, there are a lot of really bad color guys out there. I mean really bad. He's pretty good by comparison.

This offense is difficult to watch

Hot and cold. Sometimes we really pound out the hits. And then sometimes . . . this.

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

Rea settled down reasonably well. Pirates good bullpen guys all had to pitch yesterday, so there's a chance to steal this one if we can keep in contact.

He’s definitely a homer - but …

Murphy’s in game decisions have been significantly worse than Counsell’s

It's usually like this when I watch.

[Bulldogboy]

Rowdy stealing money. 

[edfunderburk]

Rea is consistently bland but gives you 5-6 innings & a chance to win most every game 

We could use a few more starters like Rea

[yourout]

Heck of a play by Willie.

Me too 🤓

[Underachiever]

Don’t they always say that the guy who makes a great play in the field pops up on the first pitch of the inning?

[edfunderburk]

The Pirates have three quality starting pitchers 

I would welcome Keller or Jones & certainly Skenes to our rotation 

[Underachiever]

Yay, season high in strikeouts for Keller.

[yfinn6]

Not sure what Perkins is doing in that at bat but whatever. 

Frelick with a missile to left for the hit. 

[edfunderburk]

Looks like a shutout … not sure how much more bad offense I can watch

(Hoping this post jinxes us into a few runs)

They do. And they are 6.5 games behind us.

[Underachiever]

Livin in America, station to station!

[Bulldogboy]

Hmm Ortiz is going to continue to make the manager look ridiculous.
