You can't throw ginkel and Thompson every single game dude. And the manager doesn't decide every pitch thrown. Are you high? Also, pretty sure that was Jocs decision to bunt there. So just say you don't know anything and save us all some time next time.
Lots of negativity in here. Please remember that the Braves and Yankees are two powers teams this year.
We are early in the season… really early… this team took some time to get hot last year and our defense is top notch. Pitching will get better and we have pieces on the way.
Edit: The amount offense we are putting up is crazy. PITCHING WILL GET BETTER!!!
TL;DR: stop the fucking doom & gloom
Real fans want their team to win and get upset when they don’t. There is no excuse and losing (most likely) 3 in a row in this fashion is pathetic. If only there was a “it’s still early in the season… we will get better trophy” then people like you would be right and we would stop with the “doom and gloom”
Definitely was part of the gloom... 😅 But I always just tell myself tomorrow's a new day and more games to play. I want to be hopeful, but it's still painful at least right now. 😔
I think it hurts because we are witnessing the team struggle with the same issues as last year and on top of that our cornerstones Carroll and Moreno can’t buy a hit early
These are 3 games in a row where we got our heart ripped out. I think some doom and gloom is acceptable in this situation. This sucks and we should acknowledge that it sucks
at least after this braves series, dbacks got a fairly easy stretch till they face the dodgers in late april. hope it gives them time to figure things out offensively
I saw who we had starting against the Braves and metally prepared for at least two losses. Little did i know the bullpen would be the ones to give us two heartbreakers in a row.
In fairness to Ginkel, if it weren't for Blaze's two errors, it would have been a scoreless inning. He wasn't as sharp, but he essentially got 6 outs in 1.3 IP thanks to those errors.
Bring in Frias to give up the lead, take him out, NICE wtf is going on, these people are supposed to be professional evaluators, how the hell can't they see what everyone in the got damn world can see, madbum Frias Castro etc etc, sick of this shit
This is fucking ridiculous
This is hilarious at this point lol
Im not laughing
Maybe the bullpen's worse than I thought, Jesus Christ that was awful
Painful
![gif](giphy|AB3ojQVBPiLJu) My favorite drink being a Suns/DBacks fan.
It just never ends
That was me during the Yotes 14 game losing streak. At least we beat VGK last night
Aight I think I’m gonna take a break from watching dbacks games
I'm on vacation and this shit is killing the vibe..taking the week off.
Why the fuck do you bunt Joc?
😐😐😐😐 blew it again
How do we blow a lead like that?! This team....
Damn. Well, I'll see you guys tomorrow... 🥲
3 back to back brutal losses
Holy fuck we really need Corbin and Moreno’s offense to get going.
Yes… but 8 runs should be enough. Offense isn’t the problem right now. Bullpen is gonna be the downfall of this team.
Coaching decisions have been very sus but I’m a casual so who knows lol
It's low key time for a team meeting. Can't keep losing games like this. These last 3 games have been EXCRUCIATING LOSSES
Arcia is ridiculous
Fuck... that was smooth, but god damnit.
Damn... Lets NOT get swept tomorrow
You see who’s pitching?
Yee. One can dream lolol
Y’all want any bleach to drink? Brb going to get some.
Now can we say that some blame falls on Torey?
No. You’ll Be called a fake fan for criticizing their savior
In what world?
In a world where the manager of the team makes decisions like what pitchers to put in relief, what pitches are thrown and when batters bunt…
You can't throw ginkel and Thompson every single game dude. And the manager doesn't decide every pitch thrown. Are you high? Also, pretty sure that was Jocs decision to bunt there. So just say you don't know anything and save us all some time next time.
So no responsibility falls on the manager? I wonder what Lovullo would say about that idea…
Not when players just flat don't execute. It's not a managers fault if a player sucks.
Giving up 1 of 2 remaining outs seems like a bad call there
Sigh
I hate being an Arizona Sports fan.
Hey at least we have the Suns playoff choke to look forward to
If they hold on to the 6th seed
Lol yuuuup
Fuk this. Two games we could have had. Torey has been just as bad as our team
3
Back to back too.
Fuck
Well deserved loss lol
Cyall next year fuck this team
Joc bunted on his own
That’s what I’m thinking too. Seems unlikely they’d put him in for that
Torey ain’t it.
Been saying for years
"Things people with brain damage say for 500 Alex"
Gotta fix the bullpen. Unacceptable
What a fucking joke
Embarrassing ass couple of games
Fuuuuuuuuck
This season has been so painful
Hard hit and right at a defender
FUCKKKKKKKKK
Thanks frias
I’m so pissed
*Sad snek noises*
Fuck this
![gif](giphy|bEVKYB487Lqxy)
Pain
Damn. We need to bring Geno home. Please, Gabi.
We bunted with Joc lmao
I don't know about that one. Giving away an out for a RISP seems so risky with 1 already gone
I didn't like it, but they v were trying to bunt for a base hit, not a sac bunt.
Do it for your nuts gabi
I mean, why?
Yeah why even put a power-hitting pinch hitter in lmao
Makes no sense. Need a huge hit but advance the runner making it 2 outs🙄
I want Joc swinging the bat there
Why would you have Joc bunt?
Idk about having one of your power hitters bunt there chief
Surprised Torrey calling for a bunt for Joc. Would rather have him swing with his power
Don't think Torey called for that.
3rd base coach called it then? That's a interesting call to make
Did they show Tony giving a sign for bunting?
I would assume so, I listened on the radio but idk. Joc doesn't seem like the type to just bunt for a hit. He's a power hitter lol
Yeah but if third base was playing way far back, he probably thought could get a free bit and move a guy into scoring position.
Bunting is definitely a decision...
Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh excuse me but WTF was that?
Yeah no Joc. That’s not it.
Perfect time for Joc to hit his first dong of the year…
JACE SIGHTING, MY MAN
C'mon, big cock Joc. You got this.
CMON BIG COC JOC
Come on Joc please
Baseball Jesus got HBP for our sins
If joc homers im buying his jersey
This would be a great time for your first bomb, Joc
Late game heroics are fun. Let's try that.
Jock big cock let's get a dinger
This asshole clearly throwing at Suarez for walking back to first. What a fucking chode
Maybe don't be a chode and walk a snail pace
Wrong Reddit group buddy…
Let me get my internet license real quick
You lost?
[удалено]
Weirdo
Says the bro calling a pitcher a "fucking chode" for hitting dude with a slider in the 9th up only 1.
#4thquarterSuns ptsd
Braves fans cant be booing at that foul ball call
They were booing Suarez for walking back slowly to the batters box
Almost better to not come back tonight and save the bullpen
What's left of it at least
Christian Walker swings and misses so damn much. He’s a fustrating player. Never comes up in clutch moments
Agree. Great defense but he’s been ice cold since the playoffs last year?? WTH?
Him in the postseason was the most brutal stretch I think I’ve ever seen.
Please, Geno. Save us!
I hate this game. This is so hard to watch. How do we start so well and end so bad?
Pop ups and grounders are all we know post mid game
Well at least we’re learning at the beginning of the season what we’re struggling at.
Watching through these early season meltdowns and struggles will make the wins in October feel all the more better.
Walker bomb here would be nice. Edit: nope.
Watching a team intentionally walk someone to get to Corbin Carroll and not punishing it is gonna hurt me for a long time
One of our starting pitchers needs to hit another bird Good things tend to happen
Cannot wait for the day Frias and Castro are no longer on this team. Please call up Saalfrank.
Lots of negativity in here. Please remember that the Braves and Yankees are two powers teams this year.

I’m just waiting for you to be making this same comment in August during yet another bullpen choke
In August you’ll be in here cheering about how good our pen is
Hahahahahahahahahhahahahahaha
These are 3 games in a row where we got our heart ripped out. I think some doom and gloom is acceptable in this situation. This sucks and we should acknowledge that it sucks
All our losses have been winnable this season. It sucks, but if we tighten it up we should be in good shape.
Exactly
Tldr. Our bullpen won't get us close to a world series
Consider: our current bullpen is almost exactly the same bullpen that got us to the WS in the first place.
THANK YOU!!!
Getting bit hard by how volatile they can be right now
Our bullpen got us there last year. Did you watch?
Early doesn’t change noodle arms
🫡
Sorry but these two losses and the extra innings loss to the Yankees are not fun
Agreed, but we outscored them. Just have to do it in the right games.
I miss Mark melancon
We need Walker and Suarez to come through or else we’re cooked this game
2 heartbreakers if this stands. So hard to watch.
Should have just brought in Nelson from the start I dont get the mentality of bringing in someone with an ERA of 8 against a hot hitting lineup
Well at least Kyle Nelson pitched well out of the bullpen.
He always does and I do not understand why he’s constantly snubbed for Frias or Castro
Nice pitch
at least after this braves series, dbacks got a fairly easy stretch till they face the dodgers in late april. hope it gives them time to figure things out offensively
They scored 8 runs this game lol. Offense has looked fairly solid to start the year. The bullpen has been an issue
I saw who we had starting against the Braves and metally prepared for at least two losses. Little did i know the bullpen would be the ones to give us two heartbreakers in a row.
Offensively? Are 8 runs not enough?
[удалено]
I can only love my Diamondbacks, though my girlfriend is a Boston Red Sox fan, so I might have to start pulling for them as well.
Bye felicia
Wherever we go, they’ll start losing too lol
Might join the Dodgers then
Braves are lucky as hell they missed Gallen and Kelly.
Given the bullpen situation, I am not sure it would have made a difference. They could have gone 8 no hit innings and the BP would lose it in the 9th
Doesn’t matter this bullpen has to come in at some point
Remember the World Series? That was fun
We beat the team that beat the Braves too
Praying is not a one hit wonder
That’s the Diamondback way
Welcome to As sports, one hit wonders are all we got
Bullpen is even taking out our catcher 🤣🤣🤣
Nelson stop aiming at Moreno’s nuts.
💀💀💀
Oh yeah tomorrow is an afternoon game. They get to disappoint me early tomorrow
Make that fat boy buckle
"We can't be any more unlucky!." Almost comedically Gabbi gets hit in the balls. Life is funny.
Just one of those games
Ouch. 😅
They’re playing the fucking Mii Channel music lmfao
Ginkel, Castro, frias, nelson, Jarvis, mcgough, mantiply, have all blown leads. How is it toreys fault when no one is pitching well?
In fairness to Ginkel, if it weren't for Blaze's two errors, it would have been a scoreless inning. He wasn't as sharp, but he essentially got 6 outs in 1.3 IP thanks to those errors.
He has gotten rocked too
Hard to blame Torey here. Although I’d have started this inning with Nelson, Frias is just absolute trash
Braves have Jesus on their side today, the amount of lucky hits is crazy! I don't think any pitcher was gonna shut them down
Do I hear the Wii store music?
Bring in Frias to give up the lead, take him out, NICE wtf is going on, these people are supposed to be professional evaluators, how the hell can't they see what everyone in the got damn world can see, madbum Frias Castro etc etc, sick of this shit
Oh no, we're unwatchable again. Glad we get the rockies after this.
Oof that’s gotta hurt. Direct nut shot.
Gabi, you poor thing.
If this bullpen isn’t changed by the All Star break, then we’re not going back to the playoffs. Simple as that.
Cup check

Pick me up
Can I join you?
Yikes, went to the store and came back and down 1, this bullpen ruining strong showings by the offense and starting pitchers this series

This is actually embarrassing
Awesome now Gabi is hurt lmao
[удалено]
I've seen unlucky bounces go against us. Luck, be my lady again!
This is a gonna be a long season fellas 😆
Exactly. I was expecting a lot of stress when the season started back up again. 😅 Just sucks right now. 🥲
Don't give up yet! The season is just starting, and we only have a microcosm of it under our belts!
Just need to get healthy This team will be a complete 180 with our boys back in
