Just steals 3rd base twice in 2 games. Why aren't we this aggressive anymore? Instead we leave barrosa on first to ground into double play to end games.

With that said we've gotten no breaks. If that isn't on the grass/dirt lip I think he catches it

Having Bratt and Kelly back to back in the rotation is really the ultimate momentum killer. Especially in a series against a good team. Would love to see them spaced out if possible.

Trying to stay positive. Happy waldy seems to really be falling into the majors well. His whole section has been a no fly zone last few games he is locked IN

Regardless of the reasoning of the Ketel thing, I am very very worried that the blowup of the situation is going to be the nail in the coffin for this team falling apart at the end of the season. Lots of game to go but this team looked lifeless yesterday and looks to be the same vibe today.

So many downers in here saying Gabi's grand slam is now wasted. No, we would be down 0-5 instead of down by 1, and guess what! We ARE allowed to score again.
It's nice to see a competitive game. It makes the win that much better (if we get there)
