Not to mention winners of 8 of their last 9 since the trades, taking 3 of 4 from the best team in the AL and sweeping a 4 game series of the Twins who they were chasing in the wild card. These were not bottom feeders that they beat.
Bullpen has been lights out since they were bolstered, and the starters (outside of Hutch) have all turned in quality starts.
Offense has been ridiculous. Too many stats to point out, but Donaldson has been an absolute beast of late.
Lots of reasons to be excited. This team really looks like a contender despite their record.
