Welcome back, Doc. This is fun, and I want to enjoy as much as I can with this long suffering SSI community. We've seen the unfocused outlines of this ballclup for a few years now, and it's nice to see it come to some fruition (adding Cano to the mixture sure didn't hurt, either).
Wow...the Bartender is leading the bullpen in ERA+ this side of Beimel (wait, let me read that again). And not far behind Rodney is Medina. Danny, Dom and Brandon in the mix as well and Fernando solidifying the whole thing. Pinch me, am I dreaming? What a bullpen. Spec earlier speculated that Maurer was our middle relief secret weapon, but right now, it looks like that job belongs to Tommy.
And the offense...5 runs off perhaps the best closer in baseball to win a game we had all but lost. Who are these guys.
We have two 5 WAR hitters in our offense. How did THAT happen? And now Ackley emerges, in the #2 hole no less.
Miller AND Taylor mixing and matching at SS and elsewhere. Yeah, Billy, this team IS scary. And we've kept the powder dry in the minors.
Nice work, Jack. Don't get cocky. We haven't won anything yet. But we're having fun, and I'll take it!
