Spoke too soon. Benny delivered today.

“Benny” is an affectionate way of talking about this player that plagued the roster in recent years

The amount of people complaining about Montgomery in just a 2 game series basically is crazy

From May 26-31st he went 9-24 with 2 home runs, 3 doubles, 4 RBI, and only 6 Ks, also walked twice

Last two games before flying to Minnesota he went 3 for 6 with home runs in back to back games.

Hitters go through slumps and have tough games all the damn time. It is a 162 game season, there will be bad games multiple times throughout the year

Maybe Colson just really likes the trajekt? Anyways, guys with his profile tend to be streaky. I wouldn’t worry just yet. He also hit 2 rockets

He has said as much, it's a big part of his prep at home

It all depends if they are still in it in 4-5 weeks. That will determine what else may happen.

The gauntlet coming up is taunting

3 @ Philadelphia vs Phillies Record similar to Sox but hot since changing manager 3 @ Home vs. Braves Best record in baseball .677 Win Percent 3 @Home vs Dodgers 2nd best team in baseball .645 Win Percent 3 in NY vs Yankees +92 RD puts X W-L better than actual record 3 In Detroit 4th place in central 3 @ Home vs Guardians better on the road than at home atm 3 @ Home vs Royals last place in Central 3 in Baltimore vs. Orioles below .500 but better at home 4 in Cleveland vs Guardians better on the road atm

Key is to keep winning at home and beating AL Central opponents

Not get swept against anyone

Get a series win a home against the Braves or Dodgers

Need to win 1 series vs Yanks and Orioles

Come out on top of the 7 games vs Guardians

These things would be tough with Murakami

Gonzalez has to find MLB HR stroke soon

Good point, BH. Look at Sam, for instance. Tuesday he was 0-4, and yesterday 4-4. Every outing isn't going to be sensational. But I like the trend that we see, where the guys tend to pick each other up.

Some people have forgotten what following a team and player every day for 162 is about. You're gonna slump at some point. As you said a good team will have other guys picking up the slack.
