    Another disappointing effort from Latos today. Didn't have a "put away" pitch that he could throw when he needed to.

    He has historically been bad in April, but this is still not something you want to see from a guy who is supposed to be a TOR type arm.

    This is very similar to his first outing. He did okay for about 4 innings, comes unglued in the 5th. Is his stamina just not up to par?

    This team outside of a few guys has been disappointing all together since Opening Day.

    Another disappointing game from this "offense." Latos had to toss the shutout to get a win today.

    Ballgame.

    He's pitch inefficient and takes mental vacations against hitters he needs to dominate.

    Bad trend, but it is only two games.

    The offense needs to give him support too. Watching this team try to hit right now is pathetic.

    Well the inning is finally mercifully over. And the game probably is as well, since I don't see this offense scoring 2 runs, much less 3.

    Man, you guys are negative. Another 4 innings and we just need a bloop and a blast.

    He's allowed 2 runs through 5 innings and you all are acting like he's the worst pitcher since Jeff Austin.
    ...the 2-2 to Woodsen and here it comes...and it is swung on and missed! And Tom Browning has pitched a perfect game! Twenty-seven outs in a row, and he is being mobbed by his teammates, just to the thirdbase side of the mound.

    I'm not trying to be negative I certainly don't think this one is over I just don't think as a team they have played very well since Opening Day.

    Have you watched this offense lately? I'd be shocked if they get 3 hits the rest of the game, much less 3 runs. They are that bad right now. I know they'll come around eventually, but right now they're terrible, sans a few guys.

    It's not an outing you'd expect from a #1 stater, which is what he's supposed to be for us.

    If I wanted to watch a pitcher nibble at the corners, issue walks and give up base hits to pitchers and C-level major leaguers, I can fire up YouTube and search for clips of Jose Acevedo.

    Mat Latos needs to be better than this if the team wants any shot of competing.

    And the offense is just putrid right now.
