    Damn run inning. Brutal. Gotta hope that the offense can put about 6 more on the board

    Love Lance, but ultimately, I think he belongs in the pen. He has the profile of a great reliever: high velo fastball and a great breaking ball (curve).

    Lance is so overrated. I remember 2 good outings. One against the Yanks in the playoffs where he throws like 29 curve balls in a row and can't be hit. The other is where he pitched a CG with only 88 pitches. All other outings, he is at 88 pitches after 4 innings. His command sucks.

    Trump says they're laughing at us and he will put an end to that if re-elected.

    Not changing today. Inning continues, but further runs (if any) are not his.
    Marte (leadoff) scored twice, 2-7 scored once each, 8 and 9 did not.

    So this is what it feels like to get batted around against? So used to it being us doing it.

    He had to have been tipping his pitches or something. That was insane. Damn.

    Just checked in.

    Lance appears to have served it up.

    Shut him down? I still think he needs to get work in.

    Let the kids pitch? They have been. Well.

    Or are the Diamondbacks using buzzers? I mean, if you make a completely unfounded claim, they'll believe you, right? :p

    Or he's recovering from Tommy John Surgery after a truncated Spring Training and then and abbreviated ST#2 with a rush to start games because of money.

    Or what you said.
