    No homers in the three games

    13 hits last night were all singles

    23 out of 30 hits in the series were singles

    They were lucky to win a game

    Can you be surprised though when the team is filled with 2nd/3rd/4th stringers? This team is incredibly hard to follow...

    To make matters worse a few of those runs scored in the "comeback" were created by Boston errors. Kuroda was courageous in game two and has shown who the "Ace" of this staff.

    It was a gutsy series by the offense, they battled and looked pretty good, despite the lack of power, I'm OK with these guys moving forward, they just need to get someone back from the DL.

    The starting pitching is the issue, both CC and Andy look terrible, I think if they fade away we can look at those two as a big reason why, not necessarily the offense, because while the bats have been bad, those two have been taking the team out of games early every time.

    The good news with the inevitable fade with this conglomeration of crap is that we get a lower draft pick the bad news is blind man is picking it
