To be a good team, you need to beat up on the bad teams and split with the other good teams. That didn't happen this series.

The Rays just lost a series to the Cubs.

The Guardians aren't a bad team though their record isn't great.  I DO think they're a bad offense, so the performance of the pitching staff, yesterday in particular, is troubling.

I think TEX is a very good team and we ran into them at a bad time.

Ultimately it was a bummer of a homestand.  Oddly we've played much better on the road so far this year.  Let's see if a road trip can get them going a bit.

And all of a sudden we have a chance to take 3/4 of this series. Funny how that works. I expect Voth to come up big today. 3-4 IP, 1ER. 
 

The pen isn’t as bad as it seems. Akin, Perez, Baumann, and Givens, are on full rest. 
 

This is what we do guys and gals. Let’s steal this series.

Braves list two of three to the A's. It happens but you don't want to have a few weeks where you lose 14 out of 20. Every team even the best will lose 4 of 5 or 5 straight during a season.
