I 'spect that if you plotted out the runs allowed and runs scored, the former 
would be falling from the start of the year while the latter would be rising.
So the trends are positive, and you can't just look at the overall numbers.

Wow, one game at a time.
 
Let me write that one down.
 
Got anything about giving 110%? 
 
With more than one quarter of the season played, this run prevention team has 
allowed the most runs in the division (second most in the league) and scored 
only more than pitiful baltimore in the AL East
 
It currently stands in fourth place and is on pace to win 89.5 games.
 
Yet some feel we should be fitted for World Series rings.
 
If it plays .600 ball for the rest of the year, it will win 95 games. That's 
difficult to do. Only the Yankees played above .600 last year.
 
But I concede it will "compete" for the playoffs, whatever that means. But I 
don't think it's built to win a championship. I believe I'm a realist.
 
If I'm wrong, great. I'd rather be wrong than right.
