Would be interesting to hear what the players reason would be.
I would like to hear from a few players. How do you go from being of the best hitting teams to one of the worse in a years time.

I’ve never seen so many players go into the dumpster like they have on this team.

Go ahead and trade for Bellinger. Maybe he would ignite the offense.

This team has no life. I can’t believe this is the same team we watched last year.
This team did play very poor for long stretches last year, though

I can't believe on the same day I read about the mess the Blue Jays are in, making them sellers, while at the same time seeing articles about the Rangers trading for Bellinger. What a discrepancy.

Oh, now I understand. Bellinger is a Boras client. The media always promotes his clients.

Winston Santos first AA outing was ugly.

I read several articles that the Astros are trying to get Vlad Guerrero Jr.

This year is catastrophic. Atleast the team scored last year. The team is on pace to score 200 fewer runs than least year, 75 fewer home runs and a 238 team batting average which is 25 points lower than 2023.
I know what you mean about their record over the last 160 games or so and we were fortunate to get hot when it counted. The question is did CY realize that.

If they do, I hope they have to pay a very steep price.

No and neither did the media nor at least 95% of fans. Until the last few days, if I ever mentioned how bad this team was performing, on Twitter, I was scolded by several fans and or media. Now, they are beginning to catch on.

If we are sellers, the last 2 months could look pretty bleak.

Now the team is 87-97 since that coveted 40-20 mark. It’s amazing that the team got hot at the right time for us all to enjoy our first WS. Champ.
I really want a team that can sustain years of winning with a opportunity to win a W.S. again. It seems like the team is going to have to make quite a few changes to get that point.

As you have kept updating us on the teams record since last years 40-20 mark I have kept that in the back of my mind. The team has really been mediocre except for October 2023 and a pretty good start to this year If you consider 6-2 a decent start.
