Geez Louise! Acuna is a beast since going to the leadoff spot! Another hr (two run) for the guy makes it 4-2. Maybe Newk can hold it this time. Can't wait for his plate discipline to improve a little and cut down on the K's, especially the strike 3 looking ones. We may have a perennial 30+ HR .300 hitter.

Dansby with a decent swing but hit it right at the RF. Decent swings and hard hit balls are all I’m asking for, even routine contact would be nice.

If deGrom and Scherzer can do it so can we! LOL degrom and sherzer neither one have an ERA of 0. So they give up runs too... I forget according to some people on this bored, other teams don’t give up runs It was a joke...did you miss the LOL!

Newk's going to have to improvise a bit today without his dominant fastball.

Since we have so few days off, I guess we're going to go the rest of the year worrying about tomorrow's game and the heck with the game today!
P.s. We did that against the Nats and didn't even need the bullpen the next day!

Every time I watch Newcomb I walk away unimpressed. How this guy has an ERA under 5 is a mystery to me

Oh, get him out of there already. He's had runners in scoring position all day and 11 hits in four innings. We've had two leads and we've given them both right back and then some.

Hey Newk. Cover first base. It's in your job description.

Not sure if this is residual from the 134 pitch effort but I wouldn't be opposed to giving him and extra day's rest before his next start. You could almost see this coming from the first inning. Had that line drive not been speared by a leaping Camargo they'd have even more runs.
