I’m reasonably sure that I remember them going into the All-Star break on a high note in previous seasons.
And then invariably they come out of the break and promptly go into a massive losing streak. They were moving up and then they lose thirteen out of fifteen games.
So it’s kind of hard for me to feel good about their current winning ways.

It also helps when the entitled father/son ownership don’t get taken in by a Ponzi scheme, then refuse to spend any money on the team while repeatedly lying to everyone’s faces and say ‘were doing fine’.
You’re right Peter and this pattern has been through most of the Terry Collins era. There’s no way they have the personnel to be a threat and if they’d just collapse by July 4th you could move on and enjoy your summer. But they always manage a streak to give one a glimmer of hope. And then you wonder if this might be one of those crazy comebacks that we believe is in the very DNA of the team! And how terrible would you feel if you missed that?! You Gotta Believe!!!!
I’m sure it will be a train wreck but we’ll have to watch anyway.
Word, my fellow suffering brother.
