This team just beats themselves because everyone wants to be on the ****ing front page of tomorrows paper.

So is the owner going to fire Maddon if they dont make the playoffs? Or do they have to win the division?
Thats not just sure team. Everytime we face Kendrick our hitters think they are going to hit the longest hime run ever with this 89mph pitch. Then its actually a change up and look like fools. He's 20-5 against us. Dont you learn a ****ing thing from the previous times?
Against the Brewers the pitcher only threw 31% strikes all game and got 14 strikeouts. Yet, when he did throw a strike, we swung 21% of the time. We were swinging at balls bouncing in front of the plate, at their feet etc. it was the most pathetic team AB's I can remember.
