Will we make the playoffs?

I think we are going to turn it around and slide into a wild card spot!

Go M's

it's one of those heart say yes, head says no situtations. It is far too early to tell as we need to think; will we get any new players, and will McLaren be staying as manager. The next couple of series' will help us decide whether or not McLaren should stay or not.

But for the moment i'm afraid its 2nd/3rd place for us.

I am hoping we will turn this thing around soon and fight for the Division. If we don't win the ALWest, then hopefully at least a wildcard spot.

So far this season we are way to inconsistent. The weekend sweep by the Yankees was especially difficult. Not only are they the "Hated Yankees", but we had our top 3 pitchers going and don't win even one game. I don't see us having any more 3 game losing streaks when those 3 are pitching in order.

The line up need a little bit of a tweek and our offense should begin to explode. All the right sticks are there, we just need to put them in the right order.

Look this should be our main line-up now

Ichiro

Lopez

Ibanez

Beltre

Balentien

Clement

Sexson

Johjima

Betencourt

Balentien, Clement, and Sexson can be shuffled based on how they are hitting.

After that we need some stronger performances from Batista and Washburn. And some consistance from the bullpen. That really will determine our success this season. If we don't get that, it doesn't matter who is hitting, because we are going to give up 10 runs a couple times a week anyway.
