3 vs nats
3 at Marlins
4 at mets
3 vs Phillies
3 vs tigers

13 of the 16 vs teams in postseason contention.

I'm gonna guess 6-10 finish to hit 100 right on the head

I'd say that is pretty accurate unless Freddie gets hot in celebration of being a new Dad and pushes us to 7-9.

I'm going all in and snitker finishes strong and they go 8-8.

I think their O/U wins for the year was 65. I didn't think there was any way for them to finish with 97 losses. Looks like i may have underestimated their losing power

The suck is strong with this team.

They've been playing well of late. The sept callups should really help the bullpen. Im gonna go with 9-7.

They surprised me taking 2/3 from the nats to improve to 58-91.

3 in a row looking like they might not lose 100

Y'all thought I was exaggerating in March & April when I said this team would lose 100. Wasn't real hard to look at the team construction and see it was built to lose that many. September call-ups and Kemp have been basically the only reasons it is close to not happening.

Yep. Swanson has swung the bat well since being called up. With him and Incarte getting right after coming back from his injury (which to toot my horn, said I thought he would bounce back by the end of the year) if Blair has turned the corner, talk about trade rape in that deal.

Shelby Miller -- 2 wins (18 starts) 6.90 era, 1.74 whip
Aaron Blair -- 1 win (13 starts) 7.71 era, 1.68 whip

We essentially got back what we gave up... I'm embarrassed for the dbacks to put inciarte and swanson's WAR. Ah forget it, inciarte has 3.4 in 120 games (avg's out to 4.6 over 162 games). Swanson has 0.6 WAR in 27 games (avg's out to 3.6 over 162 games)

Feel bad for Shelby. Seems like a good guy and competitor and never complained last year when he got zero support. Unfortunately it looks like last year sucked it out of him mentally and he hasn't recovered, may never, pitchers psyches are extremely fragile.

I wish we'd try and get him back. No way the dbacks allow that to happen, but I think he could be a good low risk, high reward now that his value has plummeted

I feel bad for him too but I think they really messed him up changing his motion and follow through.

Yeah I can't see them willing to move him right now at such a low value. But I agree, I think he can come back if they haven't destroyed him mentally. Which I honestly think he is strong enough to put it behind him.

You're right and it was stupid on their part. His mechanics were fine, it's his confidence that was screwed up.
