  1. 3 game L streak. Union sucked. And sixers doing whatever it’s they doin. I really need a win today.

  2. Offense that’s incapable of scoring against any good teams top pitchers.

    Starting pitching that has 1 top end guy and all the rest you have no clue what you’re getting on a given night.

    Bullpen where your top 4 consists of one guy who’s been injured all year, one guy who’s 35 and overworked, and two guys who are disasters every other outing.

    This team is NOT built for a short playoff series.
