A series is not close if each and everyone of us in this thread could predict the outcome as soon as Cleveland got a lead.

This team still has the foundation to be great though. We'll be right back in it next year assuming we resign Edwin and do something with our godawful outfield. We need to get some guys on base, and they need to have some speed.

I thought this would be our last year to challenge, but our pitching has changed my mind. This team will continue to be a threat, and I think could still win it all with the right changes and approach. If we get a repeat pitching performance, I think we can be an even better team.

I think Gibbons also needs to leave as well. He's served his purpose. Letting the inmates run the asylum doesn't generally work. I'm not a fan of his approach at all. He needs to keep people accountable.
