This team either has to outslug or lose

right now they can only do the ladder. No small ball, very little speed, and pitching/defense is an issue. You win 60 games and lose 60 games, the other 60 are decided by BP, SP and defense. This team figures to win 25% of those other 42 with the way they are right now.

by PinchHitLancePainter on Apr 18, 2009 4:33 PM MDT reply actions  

I thought this was a .500 team

but that was if Helton wasn’t done, Tulo wasn’t Khalli Greene, if Atkins would hit near his life time average, if Spilly could hit near his life time average, if Iannetta, could continue to develop, if Hawpe could be steady

see where I’m going with this?

I know

I’m just saying, I really don’t think they’d pull the trigger this early. Maybe in a week if we don’t win another game, but not after just 12 games. It’s not like we’re winless.
