I know it's not offical but it will soon be.  So now the twin towers of evil have gotten better and we have taken a BIG step back.  Please don't tell me that "it will be ok" or similar blather.  Let's get real:  We lost our closer, and Tex's bat. Our betting order is now average at best and horribly weak at the 7-8-9 hitters.  Please don't point out that now we can go get Abreu, Rivera or G.A.  Morales is inconsistent at best. Howie breaks down and Figgy is up and down and has issues with Mike.  I am terribly depressed.  Sure we get some picks but the pitching staff gets older, Vlad is in his last year and is winding down and our playoff opponents are getting stronger.  My only hope is that Arte goes hard after Peavy and ManRam.

I bleed, as many of you do, Angel Red but we have to believe and feel that we have a competitive product on the field that has a shot at the World Series.  With this poor economy (that is only going to get worse) I wonder if people will sacrifice to go to the games and by the gear if we don't try to make some bold moves.  

PLEASE HELP ME FEEL BETTER!!!!!
