    It seems like when we're looking to have a good inning we'll have at least 1 hard hit ball that finds a glove.

    For those of us that can’t watch, why didn’t Hilliard tag on the fly out?

    LH Ozzie and Michael Harris should never hit with game on line with either TDA or ozuna on bench.

    Wasn’t deep enough…would have been out by 30 steps because Ozzie just flips the fckn ball from the left side of the plate.

    It was basically deep short.

    Didn't say Albies didn't cost us. Just said Arcia's hot and lucky start is over. He's back to being an 8th or 9th place hitter.

    Rosario was the whole offense. Maybe you guys should trash talk him before every game.

    You pick a strange player to single out. He's bottom
    Of order guy on cheap deal. Criticize the ones getting paid that aren't playing. Acuna has a Sub 680 ops last 50 PA. LH ozzie and Harris are unplayable

    Shoulda sent Hilliard. In hindsight anyway.
    Tying run on 3rd with one out. Gotta have that come October. Freakin’ squeeze if you gotta.

    Pen looking better, Charlie was GREAT.

    And the Chip Caray CRAP has got to STOP.
    Seriously, like you are in the ballpark - you should be able to tell better than that. You know damn well when one is crushed and when one is a maybe.
    Peter Van Wieren would never…it’s unprofessional, and frankly offensive- because I fall for it. Just sayin’

    Now Mets lost, so no harm done, and Philly is now in last place.

    We have our secret weapon (agent Mississippi) deployed in person tomorrow night along with the NL K King Strider on the mound.
    And Ozuna will be back in there - I like our chances.

    The whole lineup sucks right now and has for a while. It’s called a slump. They happen. No one thought Arcia was going to keep hitting .340… such a weird lap you keep trying to take for him.

    With a speedster on 3b, LH Ozzie should be asked to bunt there. That's if you're dead set on sending him up there... I'd have PH ozuna

    Dude. I’d pinch hit Ron Freakin’ Washington over LH Ozzie.
    I’m not kidding. At all.

    In his last 50 PAs, Acuna has an average EV of 95.4. His BABIP is just .268. He's been really unlucky.

    In his last 50 PAs, Arcia's average EV is 87. His BABIP is .343. He's been lucky and yet has still been bad.

    As for why I single out Arcia, it's because people were quick to jump on me for doubting him when he was doing well. Now that he's regressing, I'm pointing that fact out.

    I thought I remembered his back injury happening at the end of spring training but maybe it was the first of the season. Doesn’t really change anything. Tough to get in a routine when you have 2 nagging injuries to start the year.

    I think a double steal was the correct call there also. They throw to second you tied the game. They don’t throw, you get a free base and take the double play off the table.
    Hilliard can run- and he takes off if the catcher throws to second he steals it every time.
