Ok the good thing is that we're staying in the same spot as before. The bad thing is that the reason why we're in the same spot is because we lost again to one of the last place teams in baseball. Our pitchers are probably not communicating well with our interim catchers. Too many runs given up decide games for themselves. Offense has to be solid, and we have that. But we also need a solid defense. Pitching is crucial in this game, and if you make too many mistakes on either side of the plate, games are blown, and so is playoff time.
