As a Mitchell truther who thought he was finally breaking out, I’ve been so massively disappointed with him lately.

[wibadgers23]

At least the Cubs lost. That's as positive as I can get today.

[Bulldogboy]

That challenge is so incredibly insulting 

[yourout]

Would be interesting to know what our risp splits look like for the last 60 games or so. 

 

[edfunderburk]

Would this be our third shutout in two weeks?

I'm a little worried we should have sold high on him. I'm not sure he's going to be much more than what we've seen this year

This team looks like it's disappointed the front office let the team to beat add the best guy out there. I wouldn't be surprised. 

I sure hope that is not the case, they play for the Brewers. Every year the rumors are that they will go get the big add at the deadline and it has almost never happened under the Stearns and Arnold regime. Not getting Skubal shouldn't be some sort of shock, especially if the ask was Henderson, Pena, plus.

A part of me(albeit a small part), hopes this team goes in the tank the rest of the year, to show their not happy about their GM's failure to get the "big swing" he was supposedly taking. He took a big swing...a huge swing and a miss.

Yeah, but it's not like Bill has been stellar in that department either.

See what I mean?

This is insanity. 

[yfinn6]

That wild pitch really hurt. 

[yourout]

No way that went over the bag Fair.

[wibadgers23]

DL Hall into the game to make sure we have absolutely no chance at a comeback.

Good grief … What a dumb post … you can’t be serious 

[HarryDoyle]

You will never convince me that Hall will amount to anything.

If it was a team full of spoiled 8 year olds, they might consider it.  Fortunately, they are not.

For anyone scoring at home, with the Yankees trade, that means the following current playoff teams have made trades(to upgrade their current rosters): Dodgers, Yankees, D Rays, Twins, White Sox, Braves, Red Sox(even though Mead got hurt). That leaves : Astros, Phillies, DBacks, Brewers, Cubs, Guardians that haven't. Only two of those teams Astros, and brewers lead their divisions, the rest are all wild cards. Yes, the deadline isn't until 5PM tomm, but Matt A must be so proud. 

[Two Ballsagna]

Unless they can pull this game out it looks like a 3-3 road trip. Which isn't great, but you can take it. 

[yourout]

Contreras hitting 209 over the last 30 games. 

I am more than a little worried the hitting coaches are in way over their head.

[titletownking]

This is a bad offensive team at the moment. Last in home runs, guys aren’t making good swing decisions. Can’t rely on anomalies left and right such as Bauer, Mitchell, Pratt, Lara and a resurgent Ortiz. We need our stars to show up, Contreras, Chourio, Yelich. Very disappointed to see how they’ve fallen

I'm very serious. You don't think the guys are frustrated as hell after years of this nonsense? Remember how trading Hader tanked them that year? This can have the same affect, if not more so, you hear all the chatter about taking "big swings", and then he not only whiffs, but lets the team they are trying to beat for a WS appearance get him. I'd be LIVID if I were them. If you're going to talk the talk, then walk the walk.
