I am one to temper expectations and realize this is a 6 game stretch and like any other 6 games in the season is quite a blip on the radar. However, a lot of the question marks offensively have done really good out of the gates. It gives me some optimism that some of these guys can step up and be relevant offensive pieces. I doubt but we have dug up the holy grail and all these guys keep it up…but we don’t need them all to. We don’t need career high Winker/Anderson, but something useful on offense will go a long way with a few rookies doing the same.
I hope this is a division winning type team and a team worthy of adding at the deadline. The likes of Burnes/Woodruff/Peralta give us an opportunity to make a playoff run with a decent offense that won’t flop when elite pitching shows up.
Who knows how things look in 2 months, but at least this start can give one hope that maybe this team has way more potential than we were originally expecting. Instead of a WC maybe we can go for the division and maybe put together a threat for a deep run like we had in 2018/2019.
