I've had my hopes up like 3 times this season. They'll go on a little run, four game winning streak, go 5-1 or whatever. And at times vs. better teams. But then inevitably they crash back to earth, and often against lesser competition.
Throwing errors, over running bases/bad base running, no offense, pitchers getting rocked for 7 runs in one inning and so on and so on. Four, five six losses in a row and back to .500 we go, or below.
Just can't get over the hump with the current roster and all the guys constantly on the IL. Close but no cigar
Seems like just about every season they fall to pieces right before or after the All Star break, this year looking no different.

Volson is meh, but I like him, and he has far exceeded my expectations
