That’s the holy grail of awful twins innings right there. Knock ohtani out of the game, load the bases with nobody out and get SQUAT. Absolutely a work of art. A masterpiece

Well, they certainly have numerous examples of that exact same scenario playing out this season.

When we load the bases. it seems like the opponent has us right where they want us, because they know that the chances of us scoring under those circumstances is somewhere between slim and none.

I know people might not like Roy Smalley's voice but I think he is the best guy they have in the tv booth, certainly/clearly the most knowledgeable. 

I agree with that.  Morneau, too, in my book.

Good lord, this team isn’t even trying anymore

I don't know about that, but the roster, as it currently stands, is collectively not major league-caliber.  Not even close.

I like the rookie line-up. Might as well give the kids every opportunity to pick up as much experience as possible. Nothing to lose and everything to gain.

Yes, the game,

The home plate umpire has had a tough night. It is cold, wet, and windy. He just wants a hot shower and a glass of Scotch.

Me too.

Will be surprised if we even get to 80 wins,   My Official Guesstamate ? Fan Ball says 78-84

I don’t see 5 more wins…maybe 2 or 3

There are four major league baseball players in the starting lineup. That says it all about how banged up this team is.
