[O's84]

Offense continues to be MIA.

Hays at the top of the order is a spark plug.

With 200,000 miles on it. Slathered in carbon.

Yeah, I don’t get it. If you can’t trust Henderson against lefties, put Rutschman back up there now that he’s had some rest. 

[Moose Milligan]

Bats are cold. This sucks. 

[Frobby]

The pace of this game is excruciating with all the long commercial breaks.

Hays killing us with the DP...and hasn't hit well in the last couple of weeks...

As is every other hitter on this team

This anemic offense is killing me.  Just thought to go check the score of the Rays game… force of habit I guess.

I am just hoping this is rust, but don’t have tons of hope.   At least they don’t look awful.  I guess

Rangers just seem to have everything going their way. Balls hit right at them while everything has eyes with them. Just frustrating.

[Moose Milligan]

Agreed that Hays at the top of the order is a head scratcher.

It’s not much better than awful.

That said.  He struggles versus lefties and the league will get some time to adjust.  Would love to have him though.  He is what Cowser was supposed to be. 

His next hit against a MLB lefty will be his first and I'd figure he'll be getting acquainted with Coulombe, Hall and Cionel for the most part from here on in.

[TopGunnar]

Cedric is legit in Mateo territory. Just horrible for so long now.

[tntoriole]

It is so discouraging not to see the offensive performing team we have seen 7/8 of this season 

[ArtVanDelay]

Hays is not an ideal leadoff hitter.
