Any win is a good win at this point

Well, where did we leave everyone. No, Dave Miley has not been fired. Unlike the big "Dump Jimmy Haynes" day that demonstrated management seriousness last year, our leadership decided to cut D'Angelo Jiminez for reasons which pass understanding. There certainly were worse and less productive players out there. But hey, you brought up Luis Lopez, so on balance, that really improves the team.

Talk about sending a message--we couldn't find our ass with both hands.

Meanwhile, Aaron Harang continued to pitch well, and the bullpen tried but failed to give the game away, and we win the first game in the battle of Ohio, stopping a four game skid. We have not won two in a row since the Astros series in mid-April. That would be a nice start.

Meanwhile Red Leg Nation has a chillig comparison to the current malaise and the absolutely abysmal days when Ray Knight mismanaged this club in 1997. This is not a pretty comparison.
