Offensively, yes!
Defensively/Pitching? no!

They've only given up 5 runs in the past 2 games.

I kind of am.

With Rich Little on the Bump, I’m expecting either devastating good or Terry Felton Bad.

I see no middle of the road outcome with this guy today and beyond.

I'm cautiously optimistic. With OdorEater on the IL maybe we shouldn't have released Chacin.

I thought the humor was very clear.

It wasn't funny, but it was clear as day.

If I get a kidney stone that likely won't pass, I'm going to Canada or Europe to get it surgically removed.

Doubtful. A little early for such a proclamation.

I made that proclamation before the season started and I'm sticking with it.

40 wins? Heck I’ll say 45-15.

I’m serious. In a shortened season, an extended hot streak IS your season. And this lineup looks more than capable of that.

Adding Maeda, Donaldson, and Hill and letting Gibson sign with Texas might get us there.

Well, true, but at this point, I'm thinking
59-1 is still in play
So there

Sweeney broke out of his slump in a big way today.
He’s a perfect 3-3 in early Thursday action.
