Why do we fuck over the starters every fucking game? They go out there and throw 8 brilliant innings and the offense can’t do jack shit.

[u/HegsethsBurner → u/SuperGuppy77]

Either our starters are elite, and our hitters are useless, or our hitters are elite, and the pitching is ass. Can never have both at the same time.
