    Where are these delicious ribeyes being eaten? I'm sure there's a bar with a tv there somewhere, no?

    Let's see if they can wheel a TV out to the dining area.

    I'd be gladly proven wrong, but Stott needs to stay in the lineup and imo Wilson should be in over Hays

    Schwarber DH
    Turner SS
    Harper 1B
    Casty RF
    Bohm 3B
    Realmuto C
    Hays LF
    Sosa 2B
    Rojas CF

    I am okay with the Stott/Sosa thing given Stott's numbers verses lefties. .188 since the break or something. Mundo has played well against Mets this year too. 

    How about a late inning clutch pinch hit out of him though??

    Yeah we're quibbling but I'm of the mind he needs to stay in the lineup. Stott apparently hits Manaea well,but whatever. 

    Solid non-on base AB by Schwarber to start.

    Absolute black hole to go Hays/Sosa/Rojas

    This offense is awful, just refuse to work counts,  3 straight walks down 2-0 and Harper and Castellanos swung at 6 straight pitches.  Just awful approaches and same shit as last year.

    And Thomson sucks too

    Gotta give Manaea credit. Dominated. And yeah, that Harper at-bat in the 6th was as bad as postseason baseball can get.

    Bohm saw 5 pitches in 4 ABs. I'd love to give Manaea more credit but they were just making it too easy.

    Nola was not good by the end there, but regardless if they're not hitting nothing else matters.

    Alvarado threw 22 pitches....8 for strikes.... I can't watch him pitch anymore.  Granted the utter lack of discipline at the plate is whole other issue.

    Okay fine. Bullpen is not why the lost. The manager is not why the lost. Nola is not why they lost. 

    Harper and Nick swung at six straight pitches after two consecutive walks. That was the game. 

    The best players on this team regularly come up small when it matters. Same thing as last October. Connie Mack could be the manager of this team and it wouldn't matter.

    I'm not letting the hitting off by any means.  Bullpen was supposed to be a strength and they are beyond terrible.  In the first 5 innings of every game of the NLDS, they have scored 1 run.....1!  Bohm is carrying a piano for to get thrown out at second.  Trea can't hold the ball on a perfect throw from JT.  
    Hitting has always been an issues dating back to 22 WS.  They were up 2-1 in the series only to get no hit.  This team has always been very streaky.  When the bats get cold, this is what we get.  I can't even watch I'm so frustrated
