I don’t think the pen or the offense will be nearly this good the rest of the year, but the starters won’t be as bad, either. The math works out pretty well for you if you win two out of three enough times.

I guess that’s the way to go though. I’ll take 2/3 (throw in a come-from-behind ninth inning) every time.

Nats next, and then the Fish. Kind of getting right into it, aren’t we. Then the Brew Crew and Padres. Two weeks from now we are going to know some things about this team and its place in the grand scheme of things. Hang on to your hats, guys.

Terrific effort. Just terrific. The ‘pen too. To take the first series from the Braves in their house? I do love that. i dearly do. I think what I really loathe about the Braves is the fact that aggravating and phony chant they use is not even done by the fans. It is piped in. Makes me crazy. Synthetic fandom. Pathetic.

But I babble.

But they sure have been good so far. 10-for-16 to start the year is pretty impressive and the Ruiz pinch-hit grand slam was pretty awesome.
