Dbacks at St Louis series thread

[Bert]

Unbelievable! We score 2 in the top of the first on the road in St. Louis, great start and boom by the end of the 1st it's 4-2 St. Louis.... This is the signature of this team and its insanely inconsistent pitching staff. No lead is safe, there is no such thing as momentum.

It's only s matter of time before demoralization kicks in and the inevitable slide begins. You just can't keep doing this to your offense over and over again. You can't!

 

[Bert]

Again, we tack on a run in the 2nd, Archie gives it back immediately. No Bueno.

 

[Lefty]

Archie needs to go down and get his confidence back.

 

[Dback Jon]

Archie needs to go down and get his confidence back.

Yep he is not been the same pitcher since the injury

 

[thirty-two]

Ahmed with two hits tonight. Happy for him, because wow was he dreadful earlier this month.

 

[Bert]

I agree completely, but that aside its not just Archie.

You get a lead, it vanishes, get it back, pitcher gives it right back again. You can see the effect in this game clearly, guys start pressing. We gotta hurry and score more runs becomes the focus of every hitter instead of their usual approach.

The pitching staff seems to always get a pass from the Dbacks broadcast crew. Right now they are harping on the RlSP and not mentioning that we're probably going to lose yet another game scoring 4+ runs...

 

[thirty-two]

Damn. Yasmany with the bases loaded, nothing. Yasmany with runners on 2nd and 3rd, nothing. Can't hate too much since he scored 3 rbi's already in the game. I really thought he was gonna get a knock in the 9th though.

This game was on Bradley.

Nuno looked great. So did Huddy. Tomas continues to hit, as does Ahmed.
Goldy laid an egg and Bradley looks less than what he was before he got his bell rung. We continue to get squat from 2b and Catcher...

Tuffy I can live with anywhere above .230 The Dbacks knew what they were getting with him and Offense wasn't part of the deal. Did you see him frame that pitch and get that strike out called for Ramirez last night in the 9th? I told my dad, boom that's why Tuffy is here.. It would be nice to have him hit .250 forsure. I think he has it in him if he can just find a way to settle down at the plate. When he was in that little groove for a couple games, he looked so relaxed in his plate appearances. Now he looks like a Chipmunk on crack at bat.

2B is another story, I dont know what to do? Can it be helped? It's hard for me to make up my mind because I like CO so much, he could be such a solid player, but he goes into these slumps and just kills the bottom of our lineup.

 

[Dback Jon]

Up to Josh to stop the losing streak.

 

[AZ Native]

You must be registered for see images attach

The second half of our batting order is going to make their pitcher look like Loretta Lynn.

 

[frankeegee1]

Whew, how did Josh and the Dbacks get out of that mess?

 

[Dback Jon]

Trumbomb!!

 

[Lefty]

Diamondbacks leading 3-2 going to the bottom of the 9th. Can Ziegler hold the lead?

 

[unseenaz]

wtf!

 

[unseenaz]

the sooner we get out of st louis the better

Guess not

 

[Lefty]

This bullpen blows.

 

[frankeegee1]

I don't think Ziegler is a closer? We need a fire baller to close games, I think

 

[Lefty]

Who is up next to be the closer? Does it really matter?

 

[Bert]

Like I keep saying...

Blame Pacheco all u want this is yet another Bullpen loss

 

[Bert]

Who is up next to be the closer? Does it really matter?

I say Ramirez lol. At least he doesn't have a long history of closing failure like these other guys

 

[frankeegee1]

What happened to that hard thrower down in the minors? I'd give him a shot. Let him take his hard knocks if any up here.

 

[AZ Native]

Face it, we have no closer. Bring somebody up and give him a chance, somebody!!!

 

[GatorAZ]

Jesus, Cliff Pennington as your #6 hitter.
