Personally, I believed the team over-achieved the first few months but when you have 4 rookie starters and a closer coming off of TJ, I truly expected not much better than a .500 record this year.

The surprise that I didn't see coming was the offensive struggles, although Black bristled at a reporter last night when asked about it...he quickly tossed out that the team is number 1 or 2 offensively. I hope he isn't getting delusional into those stats but more likely is just frustrated at the current situation.
