As it stands, are we better now than we were last year?

I also think we are worse because some guys had terrific years and probably won't repeat. I think we are worse by a good margin. Maybe a whole 10 games.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
10 games? Even if you've hated this offseason and expect everyone to regress next year, that seems pretty extreme.

When you consider that pretty much everything went right for this team and it won 97 games last season I don't think it's too far-fetched.

Everything did not go right last year. Soriano hurt, Z hurt, Lee had below average year. It wasn't the perfect season.

I must type sloooowww.
