16 days work. 2 days handicapping. 2 days betting. 3 days partying! Much needed break from responsibilities and won some! Since the Minnesota series they have scored 5 or more runs in 5 games. They have only won 1 of those games. Says it all about the state of this team. Vogel had a stat of this team up yesterday that says this is one of the worst starts of any team since 1900. At least they won this series. I look at a team like the Cubs and they were adding some bigtime players and hoping the prospects would meet them in the middle. They did. We are expecting our prospects to do it all. That is not going to work.

Romano got a quality start.
You're absolutely right! The front office should have been meeting them part way. This next off season is going to be too expensive. Too many big names will be hitting free agency looking for 20-25m+ per year on long term contracts. That's going to screw the market up working downward. The front office 'might' decide to spend money anyhow, but they'll be getting less bang for their buck. The only thing that might slow down that market is quite a few of those big name free agents with injuries this season (Kershaw's injury might hold his money down).

We need to make some solid mid season acquisitions then.
