I just wish we could put it together and make a run. I know this year we are not making a wild card, but just a nice strong finish at .500 would really make me feel good.

Also If we could bring up a couple of youngsters and see them play well that would really make me happy.

Dodgers completed the sweep.

since we sold the farm i would be happy hanging around 10 games under .500

i think for the expectations and selling off some quality parts that would be a good accomplishment
