Pena won't get fired. He'll get every opportunity to succeed, or should I say improve the team. The biggest issue will be the impovement of a young pitching staff. Recent history would indicate that a former catcher is one of the best men to do that. Besides, it's darn near impossible to lose more than 100 games and anything better would be an improvement, sadly enough.
I just want the team to be more competitive. The team a couple of years ago (I think it was '99) that had all the comeback wins... they lost quite a few games, but they were always in them in the 7th, 8th, 9th innings. I'll go watch a team like that, it's just tough to get motivated to go to the ballpark after going to a few that they are out of by the 3rd or 4th inning.
