Mushy middle not just in the standings but in the sense of attempting to balance contending versus retooling, not picking a direction, sitting on the fence, setting their goal to being a plucky hard working team that might sneak into the playoffs. Mushy middle in the sense that they refuse to be content with being bad but also have little appetite to do what is necessary to be legitimately a contender.

Looking at the moves since Conroy came in, the one trade I really don't like is Frost and Farabee, which was obviously intended to shortcut a rebuild. Others at the very least seem to be trading vets for futures, which is the correct direction. Perhaps we can still extract value out of Frost and Farabee, with Farabee on a hot streak.
