FreshFish Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 I find the idea of not watching the standings because it's early argument ridiculous. After enduring so many losing seasons and seeing the team end in last place, I will enjoy this even if it doesn't last. I can hope and dream, Playoffs here we come!

Wild Card Posted May 7, 2014 Author Share Posted May 7, 2014 So for now, tied for first place. When was the last time we were a first place team? Anybody? http://espn.go.com/mlb/standings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Vince0926 Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 Yup yup 6-1 top 8. Too bad rockies keep winning. Nonetheless 6 outs away from a dead tie atop first place. We get first crack at sole possession tomorrow night if braves hold on to lose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man, it's really nice that the team is winning, but calling the front office savvy is a big stretch for me. They are known for disregarding advanced statistics and the veterans they brought in are drastically outperforming their projected performance, which screams luck.

I think we should just call them "statistics." The other ones are just deeply flawed and shouldn't be the baseline. Kinda serious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not a fan of this front office. I do like the heavy pitching emphasis though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
