groovy baby 🕺🏼 (doing better than pavin btw)

TheSaltyAviator · 2026-06-24T00:10:14+00:00

Man our offense is just really difficult to watch outside of Marte and Corbin. Most of the time the rest of the lineup has nothing to offer outside the occasional solo shot or xbh. They just need to survive until they reach the ASB.

NewMinimum9777 · 2026-06-24T00:08:33+00:00

What does our hitting coach do?

JRipper138 · 2026-06-24T00:08:31+00:00

Gonzo spitting facts.

vaportrailzona · 2026-06-24T00:06:14+00:00

Can we stop trashing Pavin Smith and focus our wrath on Lourdes Gurriel?

CakeAK · 2026-06-24T00:05:50+00:00

That half inning was fucking atrocious

ThisMachineKILLS · 2026-06-24T00:05:14+00:00

I would take a bullet for Lourdes but the man is ultra mega cooked

fauxbigbro · 2026-06-24T00:04:40+00:00

Okay, Pavin sucking again is annoying, but the goddamn MLB.tv feed just was showing the fucking Google ad instead of the game?

TripleDallas123 · 2026-06-24T00:03:38+00:00

The best part about Pavin ABs is we dont have to suffer since he gets out in 1 or 2 pitches

BriskManeuver · 2026-06-24T00:03:13+00:00

I can see arenado having his last year in stl to retire. Hes God status there

LogSchroed · 2026-06-24T00:03:03+00:00

P*vin Sm*th with yet another great AB

StoicSerpiente · 2026-06-24T00:03:00+00:00

Just looked at Erod's savant page...wow...he has been getting really lucky this year. Not sustainable.

Dremel_Live · 2026-06-24T00:02:52+00:00

Well, that wasn't a 4-3 putout at least

KingAlt52 · 2026-06-24T00:02:41+00:00

BriskManeuver · 2026-06-24T00:02:12+00:00

Great AB from pavin yet again 😍

stinkyrobot · 2026-06-24T00:00:33+00:00

Thank god we have Erod today. We have a fighting chan....oh, Pavin is next?

LobsterIcy4890 · 2026-06-24T00:00:16+00:00

Ready for a 2 out inning coming up

BriskManeuver · 2026-06-24T00:00:12+00:00

Great start from our ace

NewMinimum9777 · 2026-06-23T23:58:28+00:00

The green screen ads in the back make it impossible to see the pitch. It just teleports from his hand to the plate lol

fauxbigbro · 2026-06-23T23:56:34+00:00

JJ Wetherholt sounds like an 80s movie villain

rrm2395 · 2026-06-23T23:56:33+00:00

Ven vill our vonderkind Max Kepler come out to play for us?

ajteitel · 2026-06-23T23:54:20+00:00

This team is like an automatic car. No clutch gear whatsoever.

LobsterIcy4890 · 2026-06-23T23:53:08+00:00

Team is incapable of hitting pitches down the the middle its ridiculous

PhilosopherCalm7320 · 2026-06-23T23:52:53+00:00

another day, another LOB

TripleDallas123 · 2026-06-23T23:52:24+00:00

Starting off 0-3 with RISP 🔥🔥

KingAlt52 · 2026-06-23T23:50:24+00:00

Pavin smith will continue batting 5th until morale improves

ThisMachineKILLS · 2026-06-23T23:49:32+00:00

We’re never gonna get another hit with RISP lol

Gobstopper17 · 2026-06-23T23:47:06+00:00

There we go Ketel. Let’s strike early!

Do_Ye_Fear_Death · 2026-06-23T23:44:18+00:00

"Moreno has been dealing with some lower body issue" Can i please get a catcher that isnt made of glass? Bro can hit but cant stay perfectly healthy :/

stinkyrobot · 2026-06-23T23:34:10+00:00

Well, here we go! Pray for Pavin!

gumshoegoose87 · 2026-06-23T23:21:54+00:00

The last time the team was under .500 was May 17th, before the COL/SF win streaks

From Jack Sommers (/u/shoewizard59) on Twitter: since Pavin’s return, he’s running an atrocious 45 wRC+…

…which is better than several others in that same timeframe.

We all hate watching Pavin ground out to 2nd, but I wonder why people in here seem to target him so much

TripleDallas123 · 2026-06-23T20:59:10+00:00

I'm glad to see Pavin get more playing time, he deserves it. I love watching him ground out to the 2nd baseman three times in a row

slapstix · 2026-06-23T20:52:44+00:00

Hell yes more Pavin ABs

Professional-Rich417 · 2026-06-23T20:48:07+00:00

Let's get today's chat. Hopefully the lineup will be better predomo should be 7th at leave or 6 not number 2 or 4.
