These are not even competitive AB’s. Just feels like they want the regular season done. 

[yourout]

3 stinking hits and none since the 4th.

[TURBO]

At this point, all we can really do is hope that the reset after the regular season energizes this team, both offensively and the pitching staff.

Obviously, if we play the way we have the past month, we aren't going to last long in the play-offs.

[Bulldogboy]

Where is Dale Sveum to take over when you need him?

Going through the motions.  Maybe they think they can just hit the switch in the playoffs, and all will be great again?

[edfunderburk]

This is painful to watch … a slow death after a great season

Making the playoffs should never be the end goal

Ugly Baseball for five weeks plus

 

[HarryDoyle]

This is pathetic. Does anyone really think this offense can just flip the switch in the playoffs? 

[RobertCrawley]

Maybe Rhys has a homer in his torpedo bat.

I’m hoping they can, but baseball isn’t always kind like that. The best chance in the last 10 years was in 2018 and they went into the playoffs smoking hot and almost got to the WS.

The Mark Kotsay blunder...

[Samurai Bucky]

-2 DRS my butt…

Joey’s defense is phenomenal

I fear he would be added to the playoff roster if he somehow crushed a HR

that was 2011

What an ugly game that was an important one to win … 

Awful lineup & effort 

[HarryDoyle]

Maybe tomorrow they'll put up a fight.

[yourout]

Wow what a stinker.

[edfunderburk]

Another wasted three hours … yuck

[Bulldogboy]

Murphy is great flipping pancakes so all is well.

[RobertCrawley]

Well, that was pretty awful all the way around.

[shanedog19]

The lack of offense has been brewing for a while now. This was a meaningful game tonight, and we were completely non-competitive at the plate. This team looks like a shell of its former self in August.

[RobertCrawley]

At least it was quick.

[folly412]

We're tracking for another sour bite of the apple.

[edfunderburk]

The Priester streak is over at 19 games

[wntrtxn21]

Pathetic effort. Murphy had better find a way to right the ship in a hurry or they'll be out of the picture early once again.
