Raph isn't in a slump. He's wadded up into a tiny little ball.

Put moore in

Ask our entire team

At one time we had so much confidence when we had Breg, Katz, Rhymes, IB. Not so much anymore

3 times Rhymes has had runners in scoring position and fricking pops up. Geez

Bregman and Rymes have got to be better prepared mentally at the plate.

Game should be at least tied right now.

We're hanging in there though!

Yea our fan base blows
