Napoli is a shocking 15-111 since September 1st, how in the hell can he get going?

Bauer for 6. Miller for 2. Allen in the 9th. 3-0 lead.

By doing the same thing he's always done, just keep swinging hard.

That's not adjusting.

Jimmy Rollins said it best, hitters have to adjust this time of the year, there's too much film out there to pick spots and get you out. If the pitcher gives u one pitch, punch it for a single, because you won't get a homerun pitch in the happy zone.

I agreed with everything he said. The Jose Bautista's and Mike Naploi's aren't going to get a happy zone pitch, they have to adjust on the fly, or stay batting 15-111.

Adjusting isn't Napoli's style. He's boom or bust. We just have to hope he can get hot at some point in the next 2 weeks.

It's Bauer's time !!

Rizzo (Cubs) is in a 1-23 slump in the Playoffs (not sure how he ended the regular season). Pitching is the game in the Playoffs...why it sucks so bad to lose Salazar and Carrasco.

He's being a team player and making it easy for Tito to just play Carlos at 1st at the NL park during games 3-4-5 of the WS.

Fixed.

On the bright side, you should feel better about tonight’s game than tomorrow’s game, assuming they stick with the “bullpen day” instead of Kluber.

No more of this fear shit.

I don't either, Phantom Menace in a park like this is a recipe for a blowout. Im expecting a Ryan Merritt sighting tonight.
