Ort!

If Ort is going to be a leverage reliever as TK suggested, I'm going to need to take up binge eating tums come October

win #75

Watching this offense execute is like pulling your teeth with a pair of pliers and no happy juice. It's just painful.

And somehow the pitching staff does it again.

Big Daddy Ort Cloud! Pumped up

Praise be

Up 3 games *****es

3 game lead. Thanks Cleveland!

Plus 1 on seahags

Winner. Winner.

At this point, I would be fine with the team's leaders to put in a kangaroo court ruling to fine Diaz $500 for every ball he swings at for the rest of the season. Following a 4 pitch walk by swinging at three straight balls ought to get somebody in his ear before he can even make it back to the dugout. It is well beyond time for him to stop being a complete idiot at the plate. He is well beyond the point where he is making the same stupid mistakes over and over and it is repeatedly killing scoring chances. Everybody needs to be on his ass about it until he quits doing it.

Ort w a nice close out

Take the W - 3 games up now

This is exceptional. But your handle is a little scary. BTK? Like the serial killer?

We scored 11 runs in the last 4 games and went 3-1.

Pitching doing yeoman's work again (Kimbrel's 3 walks in 2/3 of an inning notwithstanding).

3 game streak.

Also 3 GB of the 2 seed hopefully we can squeak into a bye

Diaz first pitch swinging AGAIN after a four pitch walk

He's a dumbass.

Maybe Dusty refusing to play him ahead of Machete, he knew something about this?

What happened to his right foot

Did I hear correctly on the broadcast that Yordan is tied for the team lead in sac flies? If true, that is a serious indictment of this team's incompetence with a runner on 3rd and less than 2 outs

Too many guys who can't lift the ball

The way Diaz and Chas are playing, maybe we were wrong about Dusty…

Glad to win and be three up.

Diaz gives this team virtually nothing on either side of the ball and it's beyond old. Yes apparently Dusty was on to something.
