I love watching games like this.

I see why you post things like Adams is not the answer,  Grichuk will fight the waiver wire, Heyward is lost at plate  (I think he off balance, back elbow is down) etc. 
Molina best days behind him,  Peralta is not any big time threat,  why is Bouroujs even on the roster (cost?). They have a nice little Regular season team but are they any better than the Pirates?  Could they make and win any playoff series?  maybe?  but things have to go good.  Reynolds at first?  Holiday fielding is known avg.

If Wacha, Lackey, Lynn, Martinez and Garcia pitch lights out........they will be in every game.  But no big offensive stars,  no excitement, pop!  

As I watched last night game I was a bit bored.  It was clear they had no chance to score,  but you may say maybe no MLB team would have scored?
I don't know, I don't know,  I don't know? I can see why they get less national  respect than they seem to have earned.
They have bombed 3 straight playoff losses to end last two three seasons? correct?  No pop. Best playoff players were Jay Wong Adams.   Media wants players like Puig, Trout, Harper.  
Baseball seems down in popularity these days.  Too many want instant excitement (NBA NFL NCAA even Golf has people hanging on edge of seat during telecast).
