I hear the Jeffersons theme song in my head

Now let’s keep moving on up (despite these being worthless power rankings).

BP's Joe Sheehan is a believer
Don’t evaluate the Rockies as an 11-0 team, or as a 31-32 club. See them as a 32-31 team (their third-order record) that may be getting its personnel in order for the last 100 games, and that has a real chance to steal the NL Wild Card from the more famous franchises in the other divisions.

Link, though you have to be a subscriber to read the whole thing.

I like this quote.

Grounded in realism, rather than purple tinted glory or unhealthy skepticism.

I agree the whole thing is sensible and realistic

but the line ’don’t see them as a 31-32 club, see them as a 32-31 club’ tickles me.

very funny

You know, I didn’t think much of them at 31-32, but with the new perspective of 32-31, everything’s different!
