There are a ton of issues with this team. In some ways it reminds me of the Houston Texans. They beat up on terrible teams but always shrink from the occasion against good teams in big scenarios. Swept by the Rangers, 2-6 against the Pirates, swept by the Braves, 1-2 vs. the A's.
They can't hit lefties, can't hit inside pitches, have absolutely no power, no speed, and the back 3/5 of their rotation is average at best.
I got fooled by this team, but they're fraudulent. Probably an 88-90 win team at best right now.
