Overall, 17-21 is not far off what their record should be, going by pythagorean expectation.

Just as Your Js were nowhere near as bad as their 1-9, or 2-11 start, they are not as good as this recent winning streak of 11-4 in their last 15 games looks either.  Their losing streak did not last; this winning streak won't either.

And that probably applies to several players as well.  Yes, Pearce has been hitting better true, Bautista, too.  Good.  But likely that guys like Pillar, Smoak, who are off to very good starts, regression to the mean at some point.

It's a long season, things tend to balance out.

Dickey pitched today, too bad, woulda been nice to see him throw the knuckled vs his old team.
