They do look a little lethargic though. Maybe a bit tired from all the winning.

Except Garcia

There’s a thread I need to bump again.

[adambr2]

A couple game rough stretch is no big deal. Seemingly regular struggles against LHP is a bit more troubling.

[PinaMadness]

At lest Corbin is finally out of the game. That's the biggest highlight so far

[brooks_quichenick]

Great AB from Escobar to wear down Corbin. Just missed a couple of hard hit balls foul too

[jason21nl]

Hopefully they can find a way to pull this thing out

[pacopete4]

Part of the reason for the struggles is that you lose Narvaez in the lineup vs lefties and Pina is pretty stinky offensively these days so it’s like you’re batting two pitchers. Toss in Cain being pedestrian and you have 1/3 of your lineup not being very good. Need to really rely on the top half to make some adjustments going forward.

[PinaMadness]

Perhaps they'd score more if they quit looking at pitches splitting the middle of the plate and swinging at ones six inches out of the zone.

That would seem to be a problem.

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

Tough call in the bullpen. Don't want to use the A guys, but gotta keep it here.

 

Norris over more than an inning seems too dicey. Probably would have cut bait after he got out of the 7th.

[Bulldogboy]

Can anyone say what pitch is Daniel Norris good with?? It seems like he isn't great with anything.

[Eye Black]

Well the robot umps definitely would’ve rung up Thomas on that one. That’s a shame.

And now you have to go to Cousins. Costs you a pitcher.

His changeup has been very effective the past two seasons.

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

Or let it ride. Good 2 innings from Norris.

Yelich redemption tour starts now.

You do you. I'm rooting for the guy every single at bat.

[adambr2]

I think we are long past the point where we should expect that Yelich is going to do anything helpful in any huge AB.

Good for you. What do you want? A cookie?

He is on top of everything. Hits everything into the ground and can’t seem to square up on anything anymore.
