good inning for Dobbins

I hate this team.

Naw, you don’t. You hate what ownership has let this team become: The Cincinnati Carpetbaggers.

No, I do.

They've become YET ANOTHER 2020's Cards team with absolutely zero fight and less than zero charisma. I've never hoped more for a work stoppage in my life. I wasted a summer hoping, and I don't want to waste next summer hoping either.

You write very persuasively. Let me be nice, for once, and just say that I don’t feel badly if I miss a game or six or eight. I used to.

I believe we are experiencing what is referred to as regression to the mean.

This game is enough to peace off the Easter Bunny.

lol havent'd heard that one. Gotta remember that

[MIDMOBIRDTWO]

Some of our guys look deflated. They need to suck it up and grow as players. Feeling sorry for yourself is not allowed in the big leagues

...I think we're seeing the "rookie effect" at this point... The team can be discouraged with losing. They are learning though, and should show more improvement as the season goes along...

Wish I had your optimism cbcloud. I just don't feel it lately.

It borders on the criminal.

And to be honest with you, it is not fun to follow these guys. I feel like the little guy with a broom and dustpan at the end of the circus parade.

Looks like they are just getting better at losing!

Cub’s hitters are hunting fastballs, the Cardinal hitters take fastballs for strikes and then swing at off-speed non-strikes.

THAT is a pretty accurate description.

I was shooting pool in Columbus during a lunch hour. A friend of mine accidentally pocketed the eight-ball and scratched. That’s almost what he said.

This is giving me a near migraine.

got some good one liners sir. A little levity in the face of adversity lifts the spirits

The players are who they are. So is ownership, right, II?

[Lightning Rod]

Hererra, not only a poor hitter, but an idiot. Get rid of this guy.

[cbcardsfan]

Lose an out like that. dumb[ash]

[sdaltons]

Haven't seen that one before

[bartleby the scrivener]

Herrera gets hit by a glitch.
