And our offense could only muster 1 run in the first two games of this series (arguable against pretty OK pitching). But it's scary to think the names we have on offense can be shutdown so often by average and even slightly above average pitchers.

While I think we should/might make it into the playoffs, at this point I'm not sure we'd make it very far because of both sides of our game.

But hey, they're still awesome!
