I do think losing Boling and Jonah are HUGE losses. Lets hope AJ only misses a game or two.
As I posted above (was typing while you posted)... I think Marvin got VERY lucky that things fell his way at the start of the season. That 5-3 start could have easily been 2-6, and I don't think that's any more unreasonable than saying he "might" have won 9 games or so. By the time the Miami game rolled around it seemed pretty clear that they probably weren't who they teased they might be, and I don't think that's just because of the Eifert injury at that point.
