I hoping they can finish well, but it’s still a bit of task. Consider the schedule as well. Still have a couple series against the Mets, one against the Phillies, a couple against the Cubs as well as interleague matchups against the Tigers, Mariners, and Astros. Not impossible, but it is improbable.Sale, Riley, and Acuna will be back soon. Waldrep will be in the rotation now. They aren't going a 70% winning streak, but I do think they finish with a winning record starting now.
If they have a completely healthy lineup, and they still struggle offensively, it's time to shake it up this offseasonI hoping they can finish well, but it’s still a bit of task.

Oh no, that's a bunch of guaranteed wins right there! Dang it!I hoping they can finish well, but it’s still a bit of task. Consider the schedule as well.

They may anyway. That will be something we’ll just have to wait and seeIf they have a completely healthy lineup, and they still struggle offensively, it's time to shake it up this offseason

Luke Williams gonna get multiple hitsNothing gets me wetter than a bottom of the lineup composed of Vidal Brujan, Luke Williams, and Nick Allen
Brujan (autocorrect)I have read up a little on Brian. A lottery ticket to be sure, but a guy that was once considered a top prospect, and who his previous team was trying to slip quietly through waivers because they didn’t want to lose him.
Worth a tryout for the next few weeks to see if there’s something that could be unlocked.
If not, so be it, but there is some potential there.
Did Waldrep’s split look more consistent? If he can throw the version of it that sinks 2” more consistently it would be a massively good development.
I can’t remember what I saw with his stuff, but it makes sense he might have more success with a sinker than a 4 seamer he can’t spin and get enough rise.Only watched the first two innings- but yeah it was pretty on.
Used the 2 seam vs the four a lot more today and it was spotted at the bottom corner pretty well.
