I believe we need another quality bat in order to compete (rather than depending on our current crew improving)

Agreed. That's why banking on the 3rd base platoon was crazy.

[Simba2020]

Did Hoskins just miss another one?

[ClosetBrewerFan]

I'm just happy he actually hit the ball

[edfunderburk]

We must win games when we only give up two runs

Severino has certainly been sharp tonight 

Patrick also pitched well 

Anderson continues to contribute 

Koenig has been solid too

Bauers needs more at bats

I'd prefer neither of them getting at bats.

[edfunderburk]

The NL Central is such a winnable division 

One more experienced quality bat would have been nice 

[Simba2020]

I think this inning is our last chance. Don't see us having a prayer versus Miller.

Not even attempting to make him work.

[edfunderburk]

This game is another example of why last Saturday can’t happen 

[Bulldogboy]

Has Ortiz hit a ball hard this season?

[edfunderburk]

Severino should go for the complete game 

I’m sure we will see Their All-Star closer 

[RobertCrawley]

What did I miss?

Our loveable announcers said he was making hard contact yesterday. Of course his 2nd percentile exit velocity would say otherwise.

[edfunderburk]

Why Payamps here?

[kevinisaname]

Payamps is a disaster.

[Bulldogboy]

Can we cut Payamps so we can face him?

[folly412]

I hope Yoho is en route.

[MoreTrife]

Cut cut cut cut 

[JRob1125]

I'd be fine if they just DFA'd Payamps

At this point I hope they light him up so we can get rid of him.

[edfunderburk]

That HR is on Murphy

He’s conceding a one run game

He’s great in many ways but a horrible game manager 

[ClosetBrewerFan]

Is Payamps cooked or is this just small sample?

[duewizard]

Payamps had one last chance in my book. I think that homer is the final nail in the coffin. I like the guy and he gave us 2 years of good high leverage bullpen action but he's not got it this year. I'd love it if we could option him so he could work on improving but I can only hope he sneaks past waivers.
