Why are we bunting down 5

Because we can't hit.

You gotta be kidding me to be bunting down 5????  You can't give away outs.  If he is going to bunt down 5 he shouldn't be in the big leagues and for sure not in the starting line up.

Bunting down 5. Excellent. Why not just let a pitcher bat. 

Pat (two-time MOY) Murphy knows best.

Even in a vast majority of their recent wins they haven’t been playing well.  They have been winning ugly.   They can’t hit for crap and the pitching is in some serious trouble.

Come on boys, let's get a couple back right away

His ERA has doubled since 6/2

He has a 3.28 ERA and great peripherals. Who cares that his ERA jas doubled from 1.6 to 3.2 when you include a game played in Vegas where the ball flew like crazy and he gave up 8 ER.

[titletownking]

Lack of power was always going to catch up to this crappy lineup. 

[yfinn6]

Yay, a groundout.

Probably because the guy we chose to start at 2B tonight, simply can not swing the bat.

That's it for me, I never check out early, I'm a "to the bitter end" guy, but enough is enough.

Tomorrow is another day...

[FidoMcCokefiend]

O/U on games behind Cubs on 8/31. I’ll set the line at 2.5. Leaning over right now. 

[82brewcrew82]

Gotta get more than that from Jackson and Brice there.

He’s gone 5 innings, 2 innings, 4 innings, 5 innings again and probably less than 5 tonight. He’s just a guy. 

[titletownking]

And this offense is hot garbage. 

[Frisbee Slider]

[yourout]

And we're off to another 0 for 3 with risp.

We have just absolutely cratered hitting with RISP since June 1st.

[titletownking]

GM is a hack if he didn’t think they needed very obvious help in the lineup. Prospect hoarding cost this team a chance at the pennant. 

[Bulldogboy]

Once again Chourio swings at 1st pitch ball. He will not reach potential until he can get a plan and not get himself out.

Yeah totally. The guy who went 5 innings with 10 K in his last start and was only removed because of cramping is just a guy.

He goes off for a week or so then falls right back into the bad habits.

[Marc Newfield of Dreams]

At least they'll lose a three game series in October so it won't be as painful.

I will say I'd have a very strong preference for him pitching at home in the playoffs than on the road.

I like to post, that a Chourio that works the count is a monster.   A walking Chourio is an MVP.  Problem is, he seemingly loves swinging first pitch.  

[yfinn6]

Wasn't Harrison up 0-2 over Cronenworth last AB and couldn't put him away? Another indictment on him in this game. Took a team effort to give up 5 runs in that inning. 

[wallus]

Gonna need a little length from Kyle. Hopefully he can get to 5 innings.

Yeah if Yelich is basically your everyday DH you need a bat or two, doesn't matter what position they play
