    In other words, at 13 games in, we were 10-3 (.769). So except for that first 16% (=13/82) of the season, we're a .500 team.

    Things don't work like that... You could take out the best 13-game stretch from every team and theyd be a .500 team. Ours just happened to be at the beginning.

    For the most part yes. Although when your hot 13 games are at the start of the season, the record goes downhill from there, after raised expectations.

    After the 10-3 start, if we go .500 at 35-34, then we finish 45-37 (.549). Not too shabby. We can blame the 4-win decrease on giving away Ed Davis for nothing, and call it even with last season.

    And after the first week in July, I can blame Olshey for doing absolutely nothing again. And you guys can tell me again, give him more time.

    I've already predicted at least 50 wins for this season. But we'd have 60 by now with a conventional GM who knows how to trade.

    Usually trolling is supposed to be funny.
