i think im most excited for Washingtons post game.

Makes you all wax nostalgic for my, "Time to predict Sosh's post-game comments, " threads, no?

[fan_since79]

So basically, nothing was done in the off-season to improve this team. And we lost Ohtani. 

[eligrba4ever]

427 posts and counting. Hope the threads to come can keep up.

Really nice to see Adell, Moniak and Rengifo sitting this one out.

Randazzo - "Zuniga didn't want a single batter in spring training." Next pitch... BALL FOUR!

One has to laugh... You know? To keep from crying!

[UndertheHalo]

Do you guys think Arte flew out for the game? I hope he did! Wouldn’t want to miss a chance to get some crab cakes at Camden yards!

If this team wasnt dog shit we'd probably have at least twice as many

As bad as Sandoval was, the bullpen is having a disastrous day. Giving up the long ball, always behind in the count, men constantly on base. Back to the familiar double digit runs allowed and double digit Ks at the plate. 

But how could this happen? They signed a bunch of no-name guys with zero track record of success, we should totally expect them to play well.

Sometimes you just gotta tip your cap to the opposing pitcher.

It's not just that they don't win, it's downright painful to watch their games.

If they played well executed fundamental baseball, that would be one thing, but the poor mechanics just feel like salt in an open wound.

this is so fucking hilarious 

[NrM]

I was told our amazing young core was going to carry this offense.

Alright guys, we're only down by one touchdown. I think it's time to call a flea flicker with Rendon. What do you say?

Where is our Offensive Coordinator when we need a Big Play!!!

Then they'd be a good team

Looks like a familiar pattern repeating itself. Mostly get beaten  by the good teams. Losing two of three, three of four, sometimes splitting but rarely taking a series. and play around .500 against equal peer level second division type teams. Not a formula for success.

Schanuel's on-base streak reaches 30!!! 

[jsnpritchett]

Hey, at least Schanuel extended his on-base streak!

[AngelsLakersFan]

At least we have something
