Going into the 8th I thought these guys aren't the most physically talented but they are scrapping. They could win some games and are maybe only a player or 2 from being a really good team. They had laid down 3-4 perfect bunts, had played error-free defense, and had stolen third base three times--including once on the catchers throw back to the pitcher. They were playing Cohen ball. Whitney gave up a bunch of hits but he pitched his way out of trouble. Then....the bullpen. Crosswhite was shaky in the 8th then just fell apart in the 9th. Apparently we have one great starter, 2 more decent ones and then that's it.
I'm still hopeful just because of their style of play. Not so much hopeful for this year but when the recruits start to come in.
