We had the winning run in scoring position with zero outs and we couldn’t bring him home.

Sigh.

Sure, just predict what one of the top ten closers of all time is going to throw you and adapt in half a second. Easy peasy.

You sold me. You are right. Don't bunt. Who called that bunt?!?!?!? 😇

Oh no!  It's Jax in the box!!!  God help us.

That’s not the best way to cheer him on … he needs us now!

So Vazquez can't be expected to recognize balls from strikes against Hader while bunting, but you want him swinging away??

 

I guess I don't understand the logic.

The logic is that Hader is not going to throw you a ball good for bunting. I run a Brewers community, I've watched so much Josh Hader over the years. He's perhaps the last pitcher in baseball I'd want to bunt against. His entire shtick is that his fastball rides up and fools hitters.

I used to like Tatis's silliness but after the PED thing, I just want him to go the **** away.

Which is too bad because he was one of my favorite players 2-3 years ago.

Ha. Just get him in a trade and everyone will love him again. 😇

He's actually been really good this season, just incredibly unlucky.

Gotta give credit where due.  He did his job.  It's just difficult to watch this team at times.
