He has an OPS+ of 113, we have 6 batters that are higher.

Is OPS+ park adjusted?  Because his actual OPS is higher than every O's hitter except O'Hearn.  And his career OPS is .842.

Rockies' offense sucks. Irvin just sucks more.

[TopGunnar]

Another game and another night I sit here wondering why Ryan Mckenna is getting bats over Ryan Ohearn.

[SteveA]

Framber Valdez trying to repeat his feat of earlier this year.   He's in the 7th inning.

Meanwhile, Houston only has 1 hit off Manning, but it led to an unearned run so it's 1-0.

Of course, it's park-adjusted.

Yankees up 5-1

The offensive problem is easily fixed.  Just dump Mountcastle.

Wow that was pathetic can’t hit some garbage pitcher with a 5 era

To be fair we did have a couple of “garbage” hitters batting in the 5th in Mateo and McKenna. Combine that with our own “garbage” pitcher and you have some problems on the scoreboard.

You have to get into the bullpen. Freeland is in great shape to go long.

The fact that we haven't got into their bullpen sucks donkey balls.

They'll get to Freeland.

McKenna bunting with Mateo behind him was mind-bogglingly stupid.

Hope so.

I think Gunnar hits a bomb this inning.  

[TopGunnar]

We’re going to be in a lot of trouble if we have to face lefty pitchers in the players. Would Hyde really trot out a lineup of Mcann, McKenna, Mateo with Hays batting 4th in the ALDS?
