It's hard not to imagine how everyone would be feeling right now if we were 7-2 against the Pirates instead of 2-7. We'd be 31-26 -- a game and a half out of 1st.

Somewhat differently.

Yet a 5 game swing like that seems like an impossibility with this team. I said this once before, but our ability to play up to the level of our competition has been quite impressive.
