You know the drill.

Schedule is brutal with 6 games against Houston. Calhoun and Beer missing at least a week. Leake down. I don't see a positive trend here. I am going 29-31

After the two pre season games I am lowering by 1 to 28 and 32. This team doesn't look prepared or mentally ready

After watching their listless effort this week, I now think they will struggle to win 20.

I was dead on. This team will compete for the top pick

Yup. And Lovullo needs to he held accountable for this debacle. Hazen pulled off a miracle to put together a talented team, and Lovullo and the coaching staff have crapped the bed.

Case in point: Ketel Marte is NOT a lead off hitter. He has never been a lead off hitter. And by putting him in the lead off spot, Lovullo has taken an MVP candidate and completely neutralized him.

(A) Would Kendrick and Hazen remove Lovullo during this short 60-game 'season'?............Possibly

(B) Would they hire an experienced Manager to replace him? One who knows how to
manage a National League team?...........................................................................................Probably not

(C) Or promote Bench coach Luis Urueta...............................................................................Wouldn't make a difference

(D) Or promote Reno's manager Chris Cron (Kevin Cron's dad).............................................He'd know how to drive in runs

(E) Or just listen to Lovullo's alibis for the next 58 games....................................................Probably

It is a short season. But, indications are that it will seem like a very long season.................With no playoff appearance

With this awesome start, sarcasm, I'm going with 20 wins, 40 losses.
