Same old story, no timely hitting, no shut down innings, always playing from behind, can't stop the bleeding of an opponents big inning. Year after year same pattern. Had a great spring training but as soon as the season starts it's like a completely different team. Just can't put things together.
If they get good hitting they have poor pitching, good pitching, poor hitting. The term "it's early " gets old and is a line of BS.
Make spring training no more than two weeks. It's overrated anyway. These are youngsters, if they can't get their wealthy muscles stretched out in two weeks then maybe a different career, then look for a different career.
This team with their so-called talent have to learn to beat the teams they should be beating. I don't know what the problem is year after year.
Please, at least play solid fundamental baseball and find a way for more than one or two players to hit. Know the situation, forget individual stats. Play as a team. Have a burning desire to win, believe you will win.
Game one is no less important than game 162. We are better than what's been on display.
Are you sure we are better than what they are displaying. From my seat this is no better than a .500 team. As a matter of fact they are a losing team. Take away their 13-3 start last season and they are five games under .500 since. This team is not good and it is painful to watch how far they have fallen
