Nope, still 9.5 back of first. I think the Cards have hit their skids and are back on track, and the Reds, well, I never expected them to be this good, so falling back to the pack wouldn't surprise me, but I doubt they slip too far, even with the Duster at the helm. So yeah, too little too late. I like winning games no doubt, but hopefully Hendry/Ricketts aren't caught by this with too much mesmiration and if there are good deals to be made, make 'em.
Will say this, if there ever was a last stand, it's this week. Houston at home and then the Cards. I am not expecting much, but if there was one little gasp left in this awful team, it needs to be this week.
I like Colvin and Castro up at the top, and for the sake of the future, keep them there for the rest of the season.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
I don't like them at the top from an OBP standpoint as both of them are pretty mediocre at getting on base but from a standpoint of getting them more ABs, I like it.
