No one expected this team to win the pennant, however, we all hoped they would start a lot better than they have. Don't give up hope just yet. The bright side is starting pitching is looking pretty good (hopefully Meche's injury is nothing serious), even Perez today was fine. We are very young; unlike the chiefs, we can actually look at the future with current players and hope to improve. Sweeney is in the last year of his contract, if he comes back (unlikely imo), it will be a greatly reduced price. I have heard our beginning two months of the schedule reffered to as the toughest in the league. Teahan will get better, moving positions could affect him at the plate as well, he will get past this. Gordon will improve, and shealy can't possibly bat any worse; if he does bench his ass and put in gload. I'm not convinced he's Moore's long term first baseman any way.
