Dodders go to the BP early as Paxton gets absolutely pounded in the 2nd. 7-0 Pittsburgh. Pirates pitcher, Paul Skenes, is the real deal. 2 IP 4K… Including striking out Ohtani on three straight triple digit heaters.

Of course, Ohtani, being the hitter he is, smacked one out on his next trip. D'oh! Didn't take long to dial the guy in.

I created a thread here on Skenes, since he's really good. He'll take some lumps, but should be a really good one.

What in the actual flock was Arraez doing?

The amount of fundamental mistakes is astounding.

It's like they don't ever practice anything except strutting around.
Cease throws a nice fat one to the first batter - B'bye…

What in the actual flock was Arraez doing? It's puzzling, because Shildt has a reputation as a very fundamentals-oriented coach. The amount of simply *bad* plays is alarming.

Same M.O. as last season. This just seems like another team of lackadaisical players who are putting in time.
When does the grinding and raking begin?

Maybe Preller finally gets sacked at the end of this season. Something is inherently wrong with this team and has been for four different managers and 27 hitting coaches.

Manny finally hustles it to first …now he'll probably be out for the rest of the month. Unreal.

Manny with almost another GIDP. It's time for him to go on the IL - and un-oh, it looks like he'll make it after all. He's been much better the last few weeks. Not great to have him go down again with the lack of depth.

Jeez--keep the ball on the runner who stole 2nd, as he slid off the bag temporarily.

I think I’d rather have a bunch of younger, underpaid guys underperforming than high-priced veterans underperforming. This is just so frustrating to watch season after season.
