    They go to Yankee stadium and put their choke collars on. The only player who showed up was Clemens the rest were lost. There was one miracle in the game Funderburk pitched 2 innings without walking anyone. As soon as Orze came in I knew the game was over,up to that point there was a chance. Watching Gray's one at bat where he struck out on 3 pitches how is it he is still on this roster. If they want a chance at WC spot changes have to be made sooner not later and he is one of them.

    Who do all of you want at bat after 90 game with RISP, Bell or Buxton? For me I go Bell every time. A majority of Buxton's RBI are solo homeruns. As it stands Lee,Clemens,Bell and Larnach are the hitters you want in the box with RISP. The biggest problem this team has is the BP, with a 7-1 lead the game was not over. Just like last Friday with a 7-0 the BP fell apart putting Laweryson in the 6th let the Astros back in the game. Both Laweryson and Gray should be on their way to the Saints today. Watching Gray his bat is now affecting his play in the field. And Laweryson is a RH Funderburk can't put hitters away.

    Plain and simple this one was all Ryan's fault. The Astros hitters weren't swinging at has waste pitches so they got to 3-2 counts. His pitch count was 91 after 4 innings. The other problem was the lineup that had Burrows on the ropes in the 1st and let him off. He was at 25+ pitches after one and they decided to swing at first pitches making quick outs. They have to be excited about what Raya did in this outing. He got out of trouble in his 1st inning and pitched a 1-2-3 second inning.

    Hate it bring it up again but Buxton is not getting it done. With no outs in the sixth and Larnach on 2nd he hits a ground ball to SS not advancing Larnach to 3rd. Next man up Clemens hits a fly ball to deep RC that would have scored Larnach easily. Why not PH Bell for him in that spot with Buxton as DH and not playing CF. The way the series was going all weekend the Rockies were not going anywhere. I think PHing Bell for Larnach was a mistake. Watching Larnach bat the whole day he was hitting balls on the screws. Plus that took another player off the bench because Bell isn't playing the OF.

    First off we have to stop blaming attendance on payroll. It's not payroll that's the problem with the Mets or how about the Guardians. The FO over the last few years was plain and simple terrible. They drafted poorly and made bad trades. You have players in the minors who everyone wants to see but can't stay healthy. You have players who can't perform on the big stage and have to return to the minors as well. And last but not least the location of the stadium is not good. The lack of law enforcement in the area is a concern.

    You now see why DeRosa went with PCA more often than Buxton in the WBC. Buxton had 2 chances to get a ball in play and struck out both times. Yes he has 25 homeruns,but he is not getting the job done with runners in scoring position. It maybe is time to PH for him a time or two to help him work to get the job done. Last night was a game that was there for the taking.

    If this team wants to keep the fans interested they can't give games away. They are in the mix for a WC spot coming up to July,why leave Voth in when you see the hitters hitting 100+ linedrives. If you want to just throw games away I guess this is a way to do it.

    You gut the BP in 25 and only have 2 arms left with 1 in St Paul and 1 on the IL. Then have a infield still in flux after 80 games is a problem. The situation with Buxton not running the hit out is a problem in itself with the hitters all standing at home watching the ball. This should be a film that all managers show to their teams. I get tired of seeing the players not running out hits.

    The roster as it stands is the problem with players who started the season playing out of position. With Lewis back and being a player without a position he is learning 1st on the fly. Because of his draft status they moved Clemens off 1st where he had played well. And of course Lee was horrible at SS and had to move to 3rd taking Lewis's position away. They now have musical chairs at SS and still a weak defender at 2nd. So as it stands the roster is a lot of Willi.

    This weekend probably has more Cardinal fans than Twins fans because they are a far better team. Hate to say it but right now Banda is the best BP arm in the pen. And Lawrence should be given his walking papers today. And Taylor Rogers not far behind.

    They are who we thought they were!! This is just a bad baseball team period. And yesterday's game was absolutely unwatchable.

    Time to be honest here the whole infield is subpar and has now gotten ever worse. How has that happened,bringing Lewis back and having him learn to play 1st on the fly. With Kody who played it fairly well now being moved to the OF adding another LH bat there. Lewis was drafted as a SS so play him there instead of changing who plays SS day after day. That is a position he knows and should be able to play.

    If you throw pitches inches out of the zone you get swings,when you throw pitches yards out of the zone you don't.

    They can say the weather was an issue and what ever excuse they want,but this is who he is and has been. They got a pitcher with a history of command problems and Tampa got a pitcher who wanted to be a SP who can't be. The biggest problem is the rotation is missing arms with Ober,Abel,Festa and Lopez on IL. And then of course SWR being so bad that he needed to be DFAed.
