And Down the Stretch.....

Well, we survived the trade deadline with little damage and hopefully a rejuvinated lineup. So what's next?? I have mixed feelings about the rest of the season, I think it could get really ugly real fast, or this team could get on a tear. Just look at what the A's and Astros are doing. Does anyone actually think that the Cubs lineup is worse than the 'Stros. I know that the offense has been scuffling, but in the end, It will as it always does come down to pitching. Maybe Williamson and Wood will give the bullpen a much needed boost, but I wish we had gotten a reliever the past couple of days. The Indians had one out there and Baez is still available. Maybe Hendry is waiting till friday to see what happens with the Lineup and Pen and then maybe can make a waiver deal if the team stays in it.

I guess all we can do is just enjoy the next month, because it could be the last meaningful month of baseball that we see. Here's to hoping they're getting some sleep on today's day off, and do an A's imitation the next couple of weeks.
