I’m hoping for .512, but then I’m an optimist.

What .501 blues? 82-80 equals .506. Also, and just in case, 81-80 equals .503.

Yeah, kind of typical. Like Stephanie says, it’s not a question of when the Indians will disappoint you but how badly they’ll hurt you. I didn’t expect a lot this season, so April and May were like some kind of dream time. Maybe the question isn’t how they could fall so flat but how they could have been so hot in the first place. Nonetheless, I’m going to the game this afternoon/evening and and some part of me is still looking forward to it.

“It’s kind of ironic that the team starts hitting and winning now that they’ve been eliminated, ” – kind of ironic? Isn’t it actually pretty typical for the Indians?

You know if back in February you had told me that they’d end up around 0.500 and in second place, I’d have been OK. But it still really hurts after how things went after the first two months and even how things were looking into July. I’d really like to know how they went from so hot to so flat, and no, I don’t think the injuries (which weren’t all that bad in early June) explain it. But I suspect we’ll never know.

Yeah, yeah, wait till next year… but it just feels kind of flat at the moment.
