Wow...craziness for the M's since my last post here.
Weaver continues to pitch well (and get really lucky)...Hargrove resigns...8 wins in a row (including a BoSox sweep...no way!). And oh yeah, I went to all three Reds games.
I can't say the same for Bruce Froemming and his crew. What a disaster that was Thursday night.
Was that the Beltre incident? Beltre got the bag and then it looked like Guillen tagged him. Oh well it was a W for my boys.
Why an ump that is 70+ years old is still umping is beyond me.
he's also an anti-semite!

This team is so fucking streaky, it's ridiculous. Win 8 in a row, lose 6 in a row, win 12 out of 13, lose 7 in a row, now win 4 in a row. Crazy season for the M's

eh, as long as they beat the lower tier teams they can make it. They've stopped hitting in the clutch a bit and their starting pitching is finally being exposed. I still think they can do it though. The Yankee schedule is brutal and the Tigers and Indians seem to be slipping a lot and seem uninterested.
if you believe in run differential, the M's are lucky to be where they are and will probably end up somewhere around a .500 team.

Na, i don't believe in that shit. I'd rather have a team that can wins a lot of close ones than one who wins games 17-1 and then loses 5-4 the next day. The Yankees are stacked but i have still have faith in the M's. They have a gritty team and i see no reason why they wouldn't keep playing that way

I don't consider it a rock solid stat either...but it is worth mentioning that they're the only team in MLB to post a winning record with a negative run differential. Historically, teams don't finish 10 games over when they're outscored on the season...so unless they improve their level of play, they may come back to the pack.
