Rox Talk

A 5-2 home stand against the Padres and Marlins. What a Jekyll and Hyde team, a team of streaks. Only consistent thing about this team is how consistent it wins or loses! Crazy thing is that they are in 4th place only 7 games out of first place! After some wacky games against the Marlins it would appear the offense is finally ticking. Maybe some starting pitching consistency and could we make a run? Give the team a beacon of hope and just maybe... The Roxs currently stand at 37-52. Seven games back from division leading D-backs in fourth place. Currently 25-21 at home and 12-31 on the road, the Roxs have been outscored by its opponents 402-471 (expected wins is 38 versus historical wins at 42). On pace for 67 wins with 732 runs scored and 857 runs against.

Weekly WPA leaders (overall as well): Big week on the offensive front. Especially at the top of the line-up with Spilborghs, Atkins,and Holliday. Not much from the pitching staff this past week. Once again a big ughhh with Corpas and Tulo. Not so good!
