Almost best case scenario with our rotation and our command as a contender still looks tenuous. This team will be a contender all year unless something goes horribly wrong beyond the current injuries. They are not required to be at the top of lists.

He didn't and I thought it was an awful decision to bring him in for Collins.

I guess, yeah they’re already down 3 and Cole is in so they’re probably not scoring 3, still feels white Flaggy. Which is why to me the decisions last night are so bad. I dont mean to sound like a jerk to state you could this coming. Roll with Foster Marshall and Ruiz today. Also what the hell is the point of having Crochet on the team. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If our MO is going to be getting dismantled by any actually good team then no, we won't be a contender.

Staying away and allowing them to aim for the short porch was always asking for disaster I understand him pinch hitting there but his at bat looked like he had not even been watching the game at all from the bench...a 3 pitch at bat swinging at stuff out of the zone.

One lesson I’ve learned - if you beat up on teams that are genuinely bad, you are a good enough team to be a threat in the playoffs. Iirc that’s been Cleveland’s MO lately. This team is a contender. That doesn’t guarantee anything, even a playoff birth. But they will be playing meaningful games after August. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're only as good as the teams you beat. If we get beat by every good team it exposes us. And yes, to be fair injuries are a part of that and most teams are having their issues there. But that makes things a little more even. This Yankees team isn't even full power and we've compared the Sox's situation to theirs in the offseason. We're supposed to be a lot better. And I was picked apart on this forum for being resigned to the idea that they could still be better than us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I think that it's mainly because teams tend to find a new breath in the postseason. However I believe that teams like the '06 Cards are the exception to the rule rather than the rule.
