It's amazing that they're 14-7 with the offensive problems they've had.  The starting pitching 1-4 has been no less than stellar thus far.  If the bats can get it going, this could be a much more fun season than I anticipated.

I'm more impressed with how they've played despite having a Scientologist freakboy as a manager.  Seriously, every time he speaks, I cringe.  He makes me pine for the homespun turn of phrase days of Gomer Manuel.

Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

theyre going to strike out a lot just simply based on the way they play. taking a lot of pitches and working deep counts results in a lot of strikeouts (but also walks).

obviously it was at a bit of an extreme last night. kingery going through some rookie struggles doesnt help. alfaro being quite possibly the worst hitter in baseball doesnt either.

Either you're clairvoyant, or my feed is seriously behind.

yea they had 6 games against good teams and used 5th starters in 4 of them...lost them all. won when they used real pitchers. i sense a trend.
