    Harper leads the majors in strikeouts and is batting .222. He's in his prime yet he looks like Ryan Howard circa 2014-2015 at the plate. 
    him and Nola haven't been very good yet they are still solidly in first place.  that's kept some of the pressure off him.  
    Nola looked great today.  Struck out 12 in 6 innings.  Kinda weird that he is 4-0.

    Yeah he looked great today. Hopefully he's turned the corner after a rough start.

    Hug your loved ones, fellas. Life is short. The world lost a good one today, not even 40. Cancer is a motherfucker 
    sorry man, close friend?
    Not my best friend by any stretch of the imagination, but in my wife and I’s group of friends. I am/was closer with him than a lot of the others though. 

    Thanks, fellas.

    Really impressive sweep after that Brewers series. I don't think they've had a losing streak longer than 3 games this year.

    Good sign, gents. Good sign.

    tough series with the cubs coming up. Hopefully Harper is out of his slump.

    How do you get so lucky to be in a division with possibly the most dysfunctional and under achieving teams ever?!

    Realmuto and Segura have been awesome additions.  

    Herrera and Kapler still drive me crazy.  Didn't really understand Kapler starting Morgan in the 10th to face Heyward who was hitting like .500 career against him. then after Morgan gets Heyward out taking him out for Nicasio when the 3rd batter of the inning was another lefty in Descalso.   Surprised he didn't leave Morgan in longer.

    I bought these spicy pickles from our farmers market last weekend. In addition to the spice, they are pickled with some Prima Pilsner.
    Holy poop. Best pickles I've ever had. That is all.

    I love baseball today. Let’s use four or five relievers every game than have to use your two worst relievers in the eighth and ninth against a first place team because guys aren’t available.

    Neshak is an asshole. How can you respect this guy as a teammate? Also, not much Kapler can do. This is on the front office.
    Alright, alright, alright!

    Might not seem like it but I saw the bullpen has the third best era in the league and that's with having a couple guys on the IL. Last night was frustrating but when you play a week's worth of close games, it is eventually going to come back to bite you with guys being unavailable. Although, I'm still confused by the Neshak situation. I don't see how just warming up the night before can make him not feel like he can play the next night.....

    WITH THAT SAID.........yes, go and sign Kimbrel before someone else does.

    But why are 4 guys unavailable in one night?  Neshak hadn't pitched since Sunday.  Neris only pitched 1 inning the night before.  Dominguez had pitched 2 2/3 on an inning over 3 days.   if these guys can't pitch more than one day in a row wtf are they doing in the major leagues?  maybe stop using 5 relievers every game?  but but analytics...

    pick a fucking closer and leave him in that role and pitch him every fucking night that you need a closer. stop trying to re-invent the game. i'd be pissed off if i was an everyday player and these fuckers can't pitch more than 1 or 2 innings over 2 days. it's absurd.

    Because they were overworked due to a week's worth of close games? It happens from time to time. No excuse for Neshek though. That doesn't make sense to me.  

    I don't know man. I think Neris is the defacto closer at this point.

    Hey at least the rest of the division blew a save last night too.
