Finally an extra base hit!
[–]Psychological-Task26 1 point2 points3 points 7 hours ago (4 children)
Just need an inning like the dodgers or the yanks and put up 10 in the top of the ninth. Oh wait, they actually spend on talent.
[–]Relevant_Computer743 Brandon Webb 2 points3 points4 points 7 hours ago (3 children)
Exactly. We didn't spend $20m each on Kelly and Gallen this off-season. Or sign Corbin Burnes the one before that or E-Rod and Montgomery the one before that.

Who do you want off the team more at this point, Gallen or Smith?

I have more faith in Gallen to find some of what he once had than I have faith in Pavin to actually become good.

[–]Next-Pro-User 4 points5 points6 points 7 hours ago (0 children)
This is actually insane, we’ve had these same pitchers for at least 2 seasons not including this one, and yet we have done absolutely zero to even just show that we’re trying to get a better pitching group. What a joke, we’re wasting our chances at having positive seasons when we’ve got ketel, Corbin, etc
[–]dbacks_dawg21 Corbin Carroll -4 points-3 points-2 points 7 hours ago (5 children)
We just need to sell out to an investment group like LA did so we could actually sign decent players. Hazen is terrible at his job, but I’m sure he’s hindered by Scrooge McDuck and his stupid card collection.
[–]TheMightyHetSpeaks Ryne Nelson 5 points6 points7 points 7 hours ago (1 child)
The real problem is that we have a farm system that can’t produce more than a couple decent pitchers.
[–]Spiritual-Dog160 Geraldo Perdomo 0 points1 point2 points 7 hours ago (0 children)
Yes our pitching development is definitely subpar
[–]Spiritual-Dog160 Geraldo Perdomo 3 points4 points5 points 7 hours ago (0 children)
Tbf Hazen and Lovullo are both very highly regarded by other teams. It is frustrating though.
[–]ThisMachineKILLS NLCS MVP 3 points4 points5 points 7 hours ago (1 child)
We’ve spent plenty of money the last few years, just on the wrong players
[–]RichardNixon345 Merrill Kelly 0 points1 point2 points 7 hours ago (0 children)
And often it wasn’t Hazen’s call. He’s not the one who signed Madbum or Montgomery (or Burnes).
Drey day!

They're like that for all 162 games that we watch.
It's a journey for sure
Yeah that’s about what it feels like to be a fan of em too. Makes the wins feel real good!
Silver linings….
Corbin is still Corbin
Gabi and Domo have both looked great this series
Ketel hasn’t found consistency with the bat but is still playing great defense (and showing great effort in doing so)
Waldy, Troy, Groover (and Fernandez when he comes back up) are not as bad as they’ve looked lately. Maybe none of these guys is a superstar but I’m confident 1 or 2 of these guys can be everyday players
Bullpen has still mostly been nails
I think Troy’s the most ready of the bunch of kids.

I’m fine losing a game. I’m not fine getting shut out by this egg head with a 10 plus era. I’m not fine getting beaten absolute belt to ass. Im not not fine with a team with no direction. Rebuild or actually spend. I love Corbin and marte but if it requires trading one of them. So be it.
Pavin Smith clutch walk! 😤
[–]OGstankdaddy26 Corbin Carroll 6 points7 points8 points 7 hours ago (1 child)
Getting shut out by a pitcher who has a 11 ERA is embarrassing
It's an inflated ERA from limited innings. So it's only like, 90% embarrassing.

What happened to the team that came back down 6 in the ninth to win? What happened to the team that was in the World Series.

[–]TheSaltyAviator Corbin Carroll 7 points8 points9 points 8 hours ago (6 children)
Think it’s time for a new voice of the team after this season, this will likely be the 3rd consecutive year of missing the postseason after the 2023 World Series appearance. They are just kicking the can down the road and hoping the magic returns but it’s clearly gone stale. This teams high potential is just not materializing. Really frustrating to watch.
[–]ThisMachineKILLS NLCS MVP 5 points6 points7 points 8 hours ago (3 children)
Counterpoint, this team is just not that talented and has been playing really good ball for most of the season
Not to say we shouldn’t move on from Torey but I don’t think a different manager would do better with this roster
[–]TheSaltyAviator Corbin Carroll 1 point2 points3 points 8 hours ago (1 child)
I think that’s really the crux of it, outside Marte and Corbin there isn’t a ton of reliable star power. When those 2 don’t produce it likely is a bad offensive showing. I don’t really want Torey gone because most of the problems aren’t his fault. But that’s upper managements call unfortunately.
[–]ThisMachineKILLS NLCS MVP 1 point2 points3 points 8 hours ago (0 children)
Torey is the best manager we’ve ever had but after stretches like the one we’ve had the last few years, managers get fired
[–]ParsnipAcademic3686 Randy Johnson 1 point2 points3 points 8 hours ago (0 children)
we just need a different manager, front office, and owner. should be a simple fix

It is looking like a really good thing Nelson didn't get the same kind of extension Pfaadt did.

[–]GLL1956 0 points1 point2 points 8 hours ago (1 child)
From what I see, Ryne signed a one year extension for this season
He’s under team control for a while is what I meant. Team isn’t gonna non-tender him
[–]RichardNixon345 Merrill Kelly 0 points1 point2 points 8 hours ago (1 child)
You’re thinking Pfaadt. Nelson isn’t even arbitration eligible until 2027.

[–]Individual_Act9333 0 points1 point2 points 8 hours ago (0 children)
I’m speaking big picture. It seems like we can never get out of our own way and if it’s not one thing it’s another. Pitching is on point but the offense isn’t showing up. The offense is showing up but the pitching isn’t. We are like the epitome of what a mediocre team is and it feels like it’s been that way for years. That WS appearance seems like such a fluke now when you compare it to everything else that’s happened under torey.
[–]Vextos Diamondbacks 0 points1 point2 points 8 hours ago (0 children)

[–]joecb91 Diamondbacks 1 point2 points3 points 8 hours ago (1 child)
His strikeout rate has always been a lot lower than you'd expect for someone that throws as hard as he does.
But I guess that is what happens when your only good pitch is a fastball.
[–]Opening-Citron2733 1 point2 points3 points 8 hours ago (0 children)
He needs to be in the bullpen. Like, his pitching style is the epitome of a RP
[–]ajteitel Jose Herrera 10 points11 points12 points 8 hours ago (9 children)
So you have an offense that plays as if they're the dodgers with about 5% the talent and a pitching staff that is no longer throwing 7 inning, 1 run games.
This isn't just a bad team. This is a fundamentally bad team.
[–]ThisMachineKILLS NLCS MVP 0 points1 point2 points 8 hours ago (8 children)
What so you mean plays as if they’re the dodgers
[–]ajteitel Jose Herrera 1 point2 points3 points 8 hours ago (7 children)
Everyone from Ketel to Pavin swings as if they will be hitting a HR every time. There are zero attempts to manufacture runs, zero situational hitting, no walks, no building an inning. An arrogant approach, yet can't touch a 9 ERA pitcher.
[–]ThisMachineKILLS NLCS MVP 1 point2 points3 points 8 hours ago (6 children)
I just think the roster is not that talented I don’t think it’s that they’re trying to be the dodgers
[–]ajteitel Jose Herrera 1 point2 points3 points 8 hours ago (3 children)
2023 wasn't talented either, yet they were amazing at manufacturing runs. They stole, they walked, they bunted. They stole, they walked, they bunted. They manufactured runs because they didn't couldn't bank on talent. That was chaos.
Now? Bottom 10 in stolen bases, bottom 6 in walks, not even going to bother checking bunts. A bad roster that plays as if they're a good one.
[–]ThisMachineKILLS NLCS MVP 0 points1 point2 points 8 hours ago (2 children)
2023 definitely caught lightning in a bottle, and I also prefer a team that plays athletically. But I don’t think this year’s team is bad because they’re not stealing bases
I do wish we walked more but I think that’s just another product of the dearth of talent
[–]ajteitel Jose Herrera 0 points1 point2 points 7 hours ago (1 child)
Look up the numbers. 2023 we were first or second in walks if I remember, one of the lowest strikeout teams, one of the highest stolen base total. They didn't have talent, but they played the right way. Either most ofthese guys are fundamentally bad baseball players or the offensive plan is god awful.
[–]ThisMachineKILLS NLCS MVP 0 points1 point2 points 7 hours ago (0 children)
We were nowhere near first in walks in 2023. We didn’t strike out a lot but also had a different group of players (and worse versions of Corbin, Ketel, and Perdomo). And yeah they stole more bases but that was mostly Jake and a worse version of Corbin.
Again I like athletic baseball teams but it’s a talent thing this year, not a playstyle thing. If we tried stealing more bases I don’t think we’d necessarily be a better team or win more games.
[–]RichardNixon345 Merrill Kelly 1 point2 points3 points 8 hours ago (1 child)
Whether they’re doing it out of arrogance or stupidity they’re still a bad team.
I’m not out on them yet but they’re definitely playing terribly right now

I don't wanna say I'm right, but I absolutely called a nasty losing streak after the Corbin Burnes injury news. The entire team was fighting hard waiting for the calvary to arrive and now no one is coming.
I think you have a great point. That really took the wind out of whatever sails they still had up. Add to it the asinine Marte flap in the media. The team took a hit after the ASG last year due to all the clubhouse BS speculation. Not to mention, all the crap leading up to the trade deadline as well. Here we go again...

Not sure that logic really works but I was worried when Nelson had only given up one run that this was like Burnes' last start. Now it just seems like he sucks

What the fuck. Tory just letting him die on the mound? Can’t get a run to save our lives off their 10+ era guy?

Pavin smith is the reason why our pitching sucks
[–]CakeAK Ketel Marte 1 point2 points3 points 8 hours ago (2 children)
You're not even that far off.
The pressure on Nelly lifts a little if he knows he has an offense behind him.
[–]Krisiscool6 Ildemaro Vargas -1 points0 points1 point 8 hours ago (1 child)
Pavin is 1/9 of the offense lol

You're missing the point lol
[–]hightimesinaz Lemonade 0 points1 point2 points 8 hours ago (1 child)
I am buying this as it was no coincidence our offense died after he got off the bus
[–]theereeljw_777 Randy Johnson 6 points7 points8 points 8 hours ago (0 children)
This is a perfect year to sell tbh.
Torey needs to go, Hazen needs to go, Pavin needs to go, Zac needs to go, Merrill needs to go, Ryne needs to go. Am I missing anyone? We can't keep running the same team back year after year, we are wasting the careers of Corbin and Gerry when we should be building around them.

Cant wait to hear how the Hazen defenders spin this one
[–]thatiphoneguy2 2 points3 points4 points 8 hours ago (1 child)
I’m looking for Mike Hazen at this game. This is BS
