Agreed but like statistics the underlying "cracks" can't be ignored. We benefited by some players playing over their skies for half a season and as we draw to a close we do not have a third baseman, shortstop , second baseman or leadoff hitter. Those are gaping holes that a Skubul trade could help fill IF the decision is made to "retool" this team.
Ask yourself if you think this team as constituted can return after such a historic collapse. I do not have the answer but many significant changes need to be made and Skubul has only one year left and has lost two years in a row against Cleveland when it mattered.
Really tough off season ahead. Should be interesting.
