I like their starters on the pitching end and position players but the lack of depth would worry me, if I was a D-Backs fan. In a long series it will make it really difficult to overcome, especially if your opponent has that depth and can still produce on either end at the slightest sign of trouble.

Lack of depth and bullpen...both have worried me from the start.

Our starting pitching has been a big surprise, considering what it was last year. We certainly have position players who can put up big offensive numbers but it gets shaky at times and will disappear for extended stints. As for our defense...it comes and goes. Some of it depends on who we've got in the lineup. We're set at Centerfield & 1st base. Lamb & J.D. are liabilities with the glove.

I didn't realize Jake Lamb had a 4-hit game last night.

His first postseason game too.

Seriously, Goldschmidt has pretty much struck out 50% of the time in September & October. He freezes on 2 strike pitches that he used to hit out of the park but swings at crap way out of the zone. He had the same issue in pretty much the entire 2016 season.

I think 95% of the country is expecting the Dodgers to win this series (the 5% who think they could win live in AZ) while everyone in Chicago/Washington "want" the D-Backs win (because we are believed to be the lesser team) so I'd love to play the role of upsetter & come away with a surprise series win & prove them all wrong.

But I'm not expecting it. Hope for the best but expect the worst.

Both of those last two pitches were strikes.

Pitch f/x says so, blind ump. Robots please

Game over.

Good night folks

Does Walker make it through less than Severino?

I'll take "pitchers who can not record a single out" for $1000, Tyson

death2redemptions · Oct 6, 2017

I guess I lose a $1,000 then.

WCTYSON · Oct 6, 2017

He has two out now.

WCTYSON · Oct 6, 2017

Well, he has pitched more than Severino. :benson:

2-run BOMB from Goldy!

death2redemptions · Oct 7, 2017

It's either strikeouts or home runs for Goldy this postseason

2-0 DBacks in the 1st

Announcers just asked "why isn't Ray's name among with the Cy Young candidates?"

Answer should be easy to figure out Joe...162 IP in 2017

death2redemptions · Oct 7, 2017

Ray got Bellinger chasing that hard slider for the strikeout!

RStadlerASU22 · Oct 7, 2017

Nice start, would be great to split coming home.

You know Ray, there is a strike zone. It's how you get strikes. Which lead to outs.

Puig did him a favor by swinging at that ball. At least he was able to strike the pitcher out.

death2redemptions · Oct 7, 2017

Dodgers have a run on no hits

RStadlerASU22 · Oct 7, 2017

A lil late and we were eating when it happened, but did Puig think he hit a HR on that one where he posed and ran really really happy to first for a single?

I think he was just overly excited but had he not done that ******* would have easily caught that ball hit to him. He basically deeked *******, making him go back a couple steps.

Although, had ******* put some effort into that play (and dived) he'd of had him either way. It was sloppy defense by a gold glove centerfielder.
