Instant Reaction: A win, a solid win!

 

Gut Reaction

That’s a solid win. Sevy was a beast. Timely hitting. Bullpen wasn’t bad.

 

Time For Me to Get Ahead of Myself

That was a big win. The first game of the series against a premier pitcher. Now we have three more against starting pitchers who have not established themselves. In my head, the wheels are SPINNING with unprecedented confidence. I know it’s a dumb thought process. I know this team hasn’t built on momentum in about two months. I know, I know, I know, BUT I can’t control my brain. I’m confident and ready for the Yanks to start rolling.

Our lineup is DEEP. Our bullpen is DEEP. We need CC, Tanaka, Sevy, and Gumby to give us 6 ‘good enough’ innings and we should win games.

 

July Headley

Chase Headley continues to tear up the month of July. I told everyone a while ago that he would. It’s been the best month of his career. It’s been his best month in the last four years by a long shot.

He’s hitting .288 in July.

.345 since the All-Star break.

.293 since June 1st.

So not only has he been hot lately, he’s been swinging a decent bat for two months now. He doesn’t have power. If you want to complain about that you can, fine. He’s now our 9th hitting platoon first basemen. If we can get a .280 performance from out 9th hitting platoon first basemen down the stretch, then we’re all set.
