So how is everybody doing? Duke and David (and I think TT) are still super confident in this talented group, and the sluggish start has not impacted Sofa's humor. Others (maybe even a few players?) are still basking in the glow of the World Series title. But are any of you starting to mentally crack at all or is any doubt starting to creep in, or are most using last season as a teaching tool and realize that everything will be just fine?

 

While the last couple WS winners got off to a great start, that's not always the case:

 

2012 SF started 18-19

2011 StL started 8-9 and was 50-47 in late July

2010 SF was 40-39 at one point

2009 NYY started 15-17 and they won 103 games

2008 Phi started 11-11

 

It's still too early to be worried, unless you thought they were going to win 110 games.

Yeah would certainly have liked it if they got off to a better start but honestly if i was a 10/10 in confidence to start the year I'm maybe an 9/10 now.

they're not even out of this game? nobody is seriously worried about this team, are they?

 

Based on my poll, it does not appear anybody is.

i've only sporadically been checking threads this week so i honestly wasn't sure

 

also, the cubs are winning this game.
