So- 260 percent downgrade in second wildcard. 40 percent downgrade in games behind, good gain in run differential, ten percent improvement in runs scored.

Ok I see .500 ish.

I’ve been saying similar. If ndeed a reset, we have a lot to be excited about reference role players. Need a real league level Ace, and one serious thumper. That makes us competitive.

And if Herrera or Walker bloom, we are there.

I'd bet on one of them, guess which one?

I know. But we are talking about a complete to compete team. Gotta add to an exciting young group. If they add, and Herrera comes alive, that’s two bats. That’s competitive. If Walker comes alive, then it’s power.

We ain’t far away, but things need to go our way some.

Walker is nothing more than a "hope" player now, I'm not counting on him ever being a power source.

That one power bat & FOTR starter is going to be very hard to come by unless C. Bloom can pull a rabbit out of his hat.

Tend to agree, he is looking absolutely in over his head, maybe he can turn the corner like Jo Adell did. And Jo is 26, Walker has a few years. But man Walker stinks

Tyler O’Neil? That dude is a can’t miss guy. He reminds me of Bader. Or Thomas. Or Carlson. Or Piscotty. Or ……. About 10 other guys Moe has been screwing with over the last decade. Worst judge of talent in the league.
