Have we reached the "Bundy is horrible, we never should have signed him" part of the game? 

I don't think this game comes with one of those.  I expect it to be included with a Yankees or Blue Jays game though.

Y'know, this is a fine part of the season for Buxton to be slumping. Just get hot when we face the good teams, and nobody will care that much.

I wouldn't say Buxton is in a slump although I did in another thread. I think he does have an ailment that has severely impacted his stroke. Unless he has been working with Sano. I would rather have him hot against other Central teams unless he plans on being in a slump until October. He may end this game below the Mendoza line which is not that uncommon any more. Meanwhile, hang on for another sweep.

He's 0 for his last 24.  Even though I agree that he's not right, that classifies as a slump in my book.

Didn't get a good look at that play there. Would a taller first baseman catch that without pulling his foot?

I don't think so, though maybe if you combined a few more inches with a little more experience at the position. But he had to come off the base quite a bit.

No.  Just a terrible throw.  Fast enough runner but Gio rushed it more than necessary.

I'd rather him be more steady, than his current hitting.

Obviously I would too, but if a player is going to slump, it'd be better vs the 18 game stretch vs the A's/Tigers/Royals rather than the Astros/Dodgers/White Sox.
