Heck, we've been waiting for another five game winning streak since May 10. We might as well hope that they win every game from now until the end of the season because they have as good a chance of doing that as they have of reeling off nine in a row. And the team seems less ready to turn things around now than ever before. They just suffered a crushing sweep by the Braves in which they scored a total of 6 runs in three games, their rotation is in shambles, their lineup is a day to day adventure, and the manager seems to have given up. This is a .500 team, if we're lucky.Section 222https://www.blogger.com/profile/17106128453333996193noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3442809928829881676.post-6745013468087525862013-08-08T15:35:49.841-04:002013-08-08T15:35:49.841-04:00Yep, ole Tanner looked pretty good last night, swa...Yep, ole Tanner looked pretty good last night, swan dive and all.SonnyG10https://www.blogger.com/profile/06568010128457246433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3442809928829881676.post-55251593996382998652013-08-08T15:25:22.706-04:002013-08-08T15:25:22.706-04:00NL,

Work your butts off in September. Win the WC game. Then you are right back where everyone expected, in the divisional series. Beyond that.... <br /><br />It's a good team. I feel it in my heart. Davey may not feel it in his. Too bad. He has given up on RZim at 3rd base. I haven't. LaRoche is looking better. Werth is on fire. Bryce is getting healthier. Ramos, fine, Desi fine, Rendon adjusting. Span slumping but he will come out of it.

Win six games, the next six. The team is healthy and has good pitching. The two teams we see next are well under .500 and trying out their minor-leaguers already.<br /><br />So, we get to .500. Then what? Win 3 more games. A nine game winning streak isn't bizarre. Now you are 3 over .500. That is where Arizona is right now. You are 5 games back from the second WC and it's still late August. You have the whole month of September to make it.
