3/27 - 4/30 Game Discussion Thread

Rangers lose 14-2 yesterday.

So naturally they win 1-0 today behind a complete game shutout by Eovaldi

Good thing we didn't invest in pitching this offseason, or we may have at least be interesting to watch as the young guys are going to swing the bats all summer. Hitting can keep us in games, unfortunately though pitching can't.

It was fun while it lasted (3 games)

Super team friendly deal for the Pads w/ Merrill....and we win again!

Six games is obviously a really small sample size, but it's baffling to me that a lineup that was considered one of the best in the history of the sport two years ago is now hitting a collective .137. And it's essentially the same lineup other than missing Acuna.

I wouldn't be too concerned just yet. If this six game slump had happened at the end of April it would be viewed as just ''that's baseball.''

But Atlanta does need to reverse course quickly. This can't become a nine game slump or twelve game slump or there will be definite pause for concern no doubt.

Atlanta fans shouldn't panic just yet. A lot of teams are going to struggle on a Dodgers/Padres road swing.

Good time for an off day. Six games in to the season and the Mets bullpen is already cooked

[bhurst99]

Pleasant start to the season but that's probably to be expected when you play Washington three times. Springer is off to a hot start which no one was expecting. We will get a good test this weekend in the Bronx.

EDIT: Whoops Jays are playing Mets this weekend not Yankees.
