    It's almost like this pitching staff doesn't want to win.

    ****ing teheran walks two bad hitters and then throws a 1-2 cookie to the pitcher, that is terrible pitching.

    There’s inconsistent Teheran! Dude literally just takes pitches off against pitchers and I don’t understand why.

    There really isn't an excuse for a guy who has lost consistent velocity to have such iffy control. It's been my frustration with him the past couple of years.

    Really remarkable how he can’t pitch to pitchers.

    He’s been such a great asset but Julio shouldn’t smell a starting role in the postseason

    depends on who we face, he owns some line-ups and pitches with confidence against them. He nibbles too much against other teams and starts walking people till it burns him.

    We’re in a really close, high-competition pennant race and can’t afford those types of mental lapses, especially an AL pitcher

    Teheran isn't our only starter allowing hits to opposing pitchers, pretty much all of them have at various points this year. Even Folty's best game had a homer by the opposing pitcher.

    Acuna swung at ball three way inside there, not a good ab like his first taking that same pitch.

    these are Julio’s numbers against the opposing pitcher; this isn't normal: 13-for-39, .333/.381/.385.

    Ball three to Engel was on the inside corner but calling it a ball set up that long ab and walk.

    yea that is bad, it seems to usually happen in games he has lost his control and falls behind in the count to even the pitcher. So then it is easy to know a pitch to hit is coming giving the pitcher better odds against him. But sometimes it is just hanging a slider or first pitch fastball down the middle and they're getting hits.
