back in action and we didn't miss a beat. 7-1 last night and already up 6-2 tonight

seems like the good starting pitching and defense of 2016 are back

Great start. did read article that players realizing this might be end of the core and just trying to enjoy the ride. That was kind of sobering for me but guess all we can do is enjoy it like they are.

Looked like makings if a bad slide especially after Brewers with no Yelich but 3 of 5 against Cards with a save by Kimbrel!

Looks like we got some potential bullpen help. Not sure about the why for the position players.

lot of trades

andrew chafin from arizonoa (reliever)
josh osich from boston (reliever)
jose martinez from tampa (dh)
cameron maybin from detroit (outfield)

for a bunch of players to be named later, how do we have roster room for all these guys?

Before 2016 my playoff misery was at the hands of Padres, Diamondbacks, Mets, Marlins, Braves, Dodgers, and Giants. Braves got exorcised in 2003 and Dodgers and Giants in 2016. Looking forward to doing the same to Marlins in 2020!
