Proving their versatility, these guys are able to lose pitcher's duels as well as blowouts on consecutive nights, now assuring themselves of a losing season, with 80 wins if they win the remaining nine in-a-row. McCown predicted 94 wins, while Vegas forecast 87 for over-and-under, so underachievers they truly are.

With the optimism shown by fanboys such as K-All, whose 2018 lineup shows Pearce as the difference maker to make this a playoff team, I'm not drinking that Koolaid. Given that Pearce had never played more than 102 games in his long career -- there's a reason -- he's a bench-riding spare part undeserving of full-time positioning -- the fiction being perpetrated on the fan-base of another year of competition before a full rebuild is unconvincing.

Today they didn't get a single baserunner after 4 1/3, against a succession of relievers. Mighty Jose may leave Toronto tomorrow with a BA just above the Mendoza line, taking his K-record with him.

WPIX coverage tomorrow, yea!!!
