We won (Friday). If we win today (which we did), that's two-in-a-row. If we win tomorrow, that's called a winning streak; it has happened before. ~ Lou Brown, Major League (loosely adapted for this weekend)

I go by their OPS numbers when assigning good/bad. Floyd has an .833 against Contreras, Lee has a .714. Besides, Lee spends so many good days in the good category that he can afford to spend one day in the bad one :D.

I guess the home run counts as good.
