Most years we are at least 7 games out at this stage of the season, and scrounging to put a 5 man rotation together. The bullpen has had good moments this season, and some very bad ones. We sure miss Yimi. Whatever the case, let's enjoy the baseball....can't get too down after losing to the literal best team in baseball. If I had told you we'd have a better record than the Dodgers on 8/30 back in April, most of you would have taken it. I hope they bring some fresh arms for the pen up from AAA and just keep a shorter leash on the relievers. (and maybe give certain starters a bit longer of a leash)
Truth is, if Little didn't do what he did last night, that could have wound up a 2-1 win, who knows.
