We have the best record in the league in the 2nd half of the season.

I'm at the point that having the #1 overall pick is meaningless with Moore's drafting team at the reins. So I'd rather just see them win.

This is how I feel. The MLB draft is such a crapshoot. I致e been rooting for wins all season... shows you how much pull my cheering has.

Another big name on the move, the Mets traded Familia to the A's today. Oakland is going for it. The Mets got a 23 year old 3B in A ball who is Oakland's 17th ranked prospect, plus a 26 year old reliever in AAA.

The success rate of top 3 picks and especially 1-2, is light years better than that of the rest of the first round.
It makes a difference. Being one game worse in 2007 means Price instead of Moustakas. In 2010, it means Machado instead of Colon. In 2011, Bundy instead of Starling. So absolutely lose to get into the best draft position possible. |

I turned the game off after Hammel in the 8th. I thought they'd blow it. They tried but just couldn't get it done. Damn....we can't even win the race to the bottom!

Well, I certainly want them to win tonight since I'm in town and it's the one game I'll be able to make this season.
