He definitely didn't have "it" tonight. Never over 98 MPH...

Might be time to give Chapman a week off.

That's what you get for not giving your starting pitcher run support. The bats better start hitting again or else this will be a very short postseason.

When the fastball isn't dominant, he doesn't use the slider enough. He could steal a few strikes with it even if the hard stuff is hittable.

Go figure. As soon as I say that, he goes back to back sliders and makes the batter look silly.

Didn't like what I saw from chapman. Nothing on the fastball, bad body language, no emotion. He didn't look right.

Looked at some defensive stats (UZR on fangraphs) Looks like in 2012, Heisey actually has more range. Stubbs ranks below average in terms of range lol.

Still, offense is the reason we lost tonight. Offense has been pitiful! That bases loaded disaster killed is.

Quality post. It's apparent why you were locked in the basement for a while

This offense is really starting to piss me off.
