Winning 20-6, then losing 3-2 & 4-3 still means losing 2 out of 3.
I'm more worried about Strohman. He seemed like he had a dead arm. Fastball wasn't moving, slider was flat. Now, he's hurt.
I have no expectations for this year, but I want them to be respectable and right now they are.
But, mostly I just think it's cool they did something for the first time in over 120 years!
