And we <i>should</i> have swept the Phillies too, but then Marmol happened.
I wouldn't be surprised at all if we lost the next 2 series.

Or at least sweep the Ass Holes and then take 2 of 3 from St Louis, I would be happy with that. But, yeah, I am guessing the norm will happen tonight...fall on face, score no runs, lose like 2-0 or something.

It just seems like the trend this season where we play well against good teams, yet look like a laughing stock against the bottom tier teams. Playing up to the level of our competition has been a problem for this team for a long time now, and it makes very little sense.
