    This could have been worse.

    His WHIP is going to get killed because of one game like the Nats difference in score in one game.

    His ERA will take a hit as well but not as bad as it could have been.

    We have to score quick before the Brewers' bullpen comes in.

    Again, it's actually not that great outside Hader, Jeffress, and Burnes.
    Aggression with prospects is fine, but being stupid is not. There should be a way to find a happy medium between a Pirates like idea of being overly cautious with prospects and going stupidly fast with prospects.

    I want Ender benched. Just like Andruw when he messed up by loafing.

    It's as if someone had said the same thing about Albies hitting too many FBs a year ago...

    And of course our offense promptly gets shut down the next inning.

    Honestly wouldn't hurt my feelings at all if Albies showed back up as 2016 Mississippi/Gwinnett Albies next year. It's none of my ridiculous sh*t, but he actually likely is a true .260-.270 bat if he keeps at a 40% fly ball hitter.

    Newk is showing why he's a "stuff #4". The "stuff" allows him to pitch a no-hitter, but the inconsistency leads to him producing as a #4 overall.

    In his first 167 games, he's at 5.3 fWAR and 4.7 bWAR. This definetely screams send him down

    Again

    Half of what I was doing was reverse jinxing.

    The Brewers are giving a PA to a pitcher in the 5th of a 1 run game...

    LOL why is it smart? How many more times is the 9th spot in the lineup going to bat?

    They just gave away a PA in a 1 run game rather than getting Shaw or Thames a PA with the platoon advantage.
