Summary
This season’s been a rollercoaster of epic wins and crushing losses—no in-between, just high-stakes baseball. The offense has flashes of brilliance, especially against weaker pitching, but struggles to deliver against even mid-tier arms. Stars like Crow-Armstrong and Busch are reliable, while others like Suzuki and Happ falter under pressure. With a pitching staff that can’t win low-scoring games, the team desperately needs consistent run production—through development or trades. Momentum is everything, but when it breaks, they crash hard—like that wild swing from a huge comeback to a brutal blowout. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
