Failure to work counts deep (thereby forcing opposing pitchers to play on your terms as opposed to dictating them)--check.
Getting bushwhacked yet again by a compromised pitcher (I mean Glasnow just did 3 innings on 2 days rest one year after a season ending injury)--check
According any sort of relevance to a bunch of dorito swilling, neckbeard geeks that dictate your gameplan -- check
Failure to capitalize on offensive opportunities with inconsistent, aggressive overswinging (or in Stanton's case, non-swinging) -- check
Systemic organizational failure from the top down to engender anything that bears any sort of semblance to heart -- check.
We might as well be discussing Paul Byrd shutting us down 15 years ago because we've learned nothing as an organization in pressure games since then.
Wash, rinse, repeat.
